I smell FOOD!

Callout for Issue 6: Food, glorious food!

Issue 6:
Reduced fat with no artificial colours or flavouring? In this issue we’re exploring the issues surrounding food. We all eat it, but do we really think about it? Why’d you choose to become vegetarian? Are the food supplies the world over really becoming scarce? Why is it that I can never remember where SuperDoopers are kept in the supermarket aisle? Is “organic” just another marketing gimmick? How ethical is the food we buy? What are your cultural traditions surrounding food? And the biggie… is it finally time to boycott Maccas once and for all? We want to know what food means to you and how it shapes the world around you. These are only suggestions … go crazy with your interpretations. So submit and contribute, you’ve got the whole mid-semester break to start (and complete) writing. Suggestions or reviews for cheap (or not so cheap) eats around Sydney are welcome too!
