"Food Babe" A Woman on a Mission to Change the Food Industry, and How You Can Too

Story at-a-glance

• Vani Hari’s blog, FoodBabe.com, and her “leading by example” style of food activism is an inspiration to a growing number of people not just in the US but around the world
• Eating organically while on the road can be a challenge. One solution is to travel with a cooler stocked with your own food, and asking the locals about organic food sources
• Vani’s achievements include making the food chain Chipotle list their ingredients, and label genetically engineered (GE) ingredients for transparency. The chain has also swapped out some GE ingredients for non-GMO alternatives
• Kraft, like many other companies, use toxic ingredients in the products made for the US market, while formulating the exact same products differently for other countries
• Simple ways to help educate and inspire others about healthier food choices include leading by example, asking questions about ingredients when eating out, and throwing all-organic dinner parties
