Eden Foods on Our Organic Squad & Healthier Pizza
(L-R) Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener, with Michael Potter, founder of Eden Foods, and Jason Potter, his son at the Natural Product Expo West 2013
When it was time to introduce the Youth at Hami High to being on "The Organic Squad" and to "Grow A Healthier Pizza" I reached for Eden Foods.
The Youth lined up in front of Ms Eva Becker's Science Class. It was their job to taste Test Organic foods. We had a ball sampling some of my favorite products that represent a standard of quality.
Returning to Los Angeles for the The Biozone Science Fair 2013, May 8, I will be excited again to be taste testing and introducing the products of Eden Foods, as well as other ingredients and products that we recommend to Grow A Healthier Pizza.
HERE IS ONE OF THE RESPONSES I RECEIVED FROM THE YOUTH MARCH 3:
Dear Uncle Leslie,
Thank you so very much for joining us in class yesterday! I thought your presentation was very interesting and extraordinarily fun!
Your Pizza box concept was meaningful and I really enjoyed the idea of planting your dreams and watching them grow.
Yesterday I wished for happiness and I think that I'll achieve it some day, whether it's through your pizza box, or on my own, I'll get there.
Thank you for sharing your knowlede with us. It made me thing of GMO's more seriously, and realize the importance of organics. You really did teach us a lot.
THANK YOU!
Happiness and all that jazz,
E.R.H.
INSPIRATION BEHIND THE ORGANIC SQUAD
The Poison Squad "volunteered" to test adulterated foods in eating experiments set up by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley M.D., attributed to be the founding visionary for what became the FDA. In those days, the men knew the nature of this eating experiment. Today, we are in another kind of eating experiment with GMO's. In that spirit, I am now invitingYouth in the science classroom of my niece Eva Becker to be part of The Organic Squad, I will return May 8 for other delightful eating experiments involving some of my favorite products, including Eden Foods. You can support this project through introducing your friends and youth where you live to organic foods. Eden Foods are among the finest organic foods on the market.
In 1906, Dr. Harvey W. Wiley M.D. had a vision for an FDA--a Food and Drug Administration that would outlaw misbranded and adulterated foods. One of his brainstorms was to organize "The Poison Squad." Men were paid to taste taste foods with adulterants that had questionable ingredients he wanted to get out of foods. The Poison Squad gained a lot of Notoriety. The Press really picked up on the idea.
Fast Forward, more than 100 years. Many of the adulterants that Dr Wiley hoped to eliminate are still in our food supply, more than ever, including GMO foods.
My brainstorm began three years ago when I began to introduce the Youth in my niece Eva Becker's Science Class to organic foods including fresh produce I would bring in from my friends JR Organics who have stalls at two Farmers' Markets.
Once again, May 8, I will travel to Hami High and be Uncle Leslie to these youth. They are aware young people, and yet the taste of products from some of my favorite companies are new to them.
This year, the classroom has a major display including my art for the year that says, How Fast Can a Dream Grow? The answer is, as fast as a blade of grass!
My dream is that our entire world be friend of The Poison Squad. No one really asked is to join. I, for one, am honored to introduce one classroom of youth to "The Organic Squad" and ingredients and Products We Recommend to Grow A Healthier Pizza.
