Eating, Third Edition: It's the biggest cause of disease, disabilities and death in the U.S. today

Join us on Monday evening, August 6, 2012 at the Monroeville Public Library for the August meeting of Sustainable Monroeville. Our Raw Foods Pot Luck Dinner begins at 6:00 PM and at 7:00 PM, the movie will begin. We will be screening the movie Eating. Mmmm. mmmm. good! Bring along a raw foods dish, preferably with locally sourced food. Remember to bring along a place setting and a cup as we like to pack it in, pack it out, and make our events, zero waste!

Reactions

This is part of an email RAVEDIET.com received which describes a showing of Eating:

"WOW! It was unbelievable! We had over 100 people show up to our fundraiser. After the film was over, about 30 people stayed around and talked and asked questions and ate free samples of fake meats and soy/ice/almond milks, etc...that had been donated by our local grocery stores. Before the movie, I decided not to put out handouts and books. I did it during the film, so that when people came out, they came on to the resource table where we had our cook books and our table full of free literature. There was SO MUCH excitement and energy in the theater lobby area. It felt like we changed a lot of lives and a lot of diets. It was enormously successful. Andy helped me and my students set up and break down, and he was also very engaged in talking to people and answering questions. He thought it was incredible! It is a great film to see on a big screen."
