Bloggers at my office challenge the food system, specifically the fast food industry. Curious about my co-workers behaviors, I will be interviewing them on a weekly basis and finding out a little bit more about their personal values, action, lifestyles and responsibility.
Q: Tell me about yourself?
A: I am the online organizer here at Corporate Accountability International, which means I help manage and expand the online presence of our campaigns and our organization. I didn’t know I wanted to do online organizing until 2006, when I interned in the New Media department of Deval Patrick’s gubernatorial campaign. Before then I was pretty sure I wanted to work in a national park somewhere (and before that I wanted to play on the Red Sox). When I’m not watching baseball I like to bake bread and play really nerdy board games.
Q: What was your diet like before working at Corporate Accountability International?
A: I was in college up until the summer before I started at Corporate Accountability International, so my diet was a college diet (not very good). I remember eating a lot of eggs and French fries. I became a vegetarian in the fall of 2007, and I have avoided fast food for a long time.
Q: Be honest, do you eat fast-food?
A: I stopped eating fast food after I saw Super Size Me and wanted to puke. But on the rare occasions that I’ve indulged in fast food, I sometimes like to get the McDonald’s milkshake.
Q: Since joining the Value [The] Meal campaign, what's changed?
A: I nag people about bottled water more.
Q: What does a ‘value meal’ mean to you?
A: I guess a value meal to me would be a meal made of fresh and healthy ingredients that I didn’t pay much for – ideally organic/local/something like that.
