What can yerba mate tell us about ourselves and the world around us? [replay]

Season 2025 · Episode 21

Friday, June 20, 2025 • Duration 51:00

“Studying food is a way to study how we are connected to the world of life around us. Whatever we think about humans being so cerebral, so intellectual–it really breaks down because we are a part of everything else around us.”

This week on the show we talk with the author of The Book of Yerba Mate, Christina Folch about how one plant can tell us so much about ourselves, and the world around us.

Christine Folch is the Bacca Foundation Associate Professor of Cultural Anthropology, Environmental Sciences & Policy at Duke University.

She spoke with Kayte Young about The Book of Yerba Mate: a stimulating history, released in 2024 with Princeton University Press.

And, Earth Eats producer Leo Paes brought his Yerba Mate kit into the WFIU studios for a tasting session.

“There is a beautiful Hindustani saying, ‘Kosa kosa per pani badle, chare kosa per vani,’ which means "Every two miles the water changes, and every four the language." So that, in fact, is the geography of taste and terroir in India.”

This week on the show, we talk with sociologist Krishnendu Ray about place and food and caste in India and how identity can be defined as much by what you DON'T eat, as by what you DO eat.

And we share a recipe for a home grown hot sauce that cannot be prepared indoors.

How to build a better local food system

Season 2023 · Episode 30

Friday, July 21, 2023 • Duration 50:58

“And that’s why we call it a food value chain.You know, it’s a supply chain but it’s based on the values that you have as far as how the land is treated, how people are treated, what kind of nutrition contents in your food–all those things [that] people up and down–from the farmer to the consumer have an interest in. And so, this system that we’re developing is about addressing those values and making sure they happen.” —Patty Cantrell

This week on the show, an uplifting conversation with Katie Nixon and Patty Cantrell with West Central Missouri Community Action Agency and New Growth Community Development Corporation.

We talk about organizations and coalitions working together for stronger rural economies and robust local food value chains. We talk about micro lending, food hubs, farm-to-school programs and more.
