New Orleans, Louisiana - Sam Kass believes there is no single, right way for the world to eat: rather, little changes in diets have the power to achieve environmental goals. Kass’s new book, Eat A Little Better shares the lessons he imparted while chef to the Obamas and White House food policy advisor: anyone can eat flavorful, healthy food with the environment in mind. Instead of prescribing only organic, local, or sustainable ingredients, which may not be feasible for many people, Kass insists that commitments to eat just a little better will yield big results for the environment and global health. With 90 delicious, simple recipes, the book provides a place to start healthy, sustainable diets.
