Seriously people … TED is the best. I freaking love TED and think TED IS THE GREATEST!!! Forget YouTube, FunnyorDie.com, or even liveleak.com … TED is where it’s at. The site is home to some of the most inspirational, inventive, and funny videos you’ll find anywhere. Okay – enough love and now the foodie tie in. Back in ought seven, Mark Bittman gave a great speech at TED. He espouses the idea of thoughtful eating. I may not be quite extreme as he is… but I think it’s important to be concerned about what we put in our bodies. So watch the video and then go pick up one of his books: How to Cook Everything or How to Cook Everything Vegetarian
