Eat food? Watch out. Recent research shows Big Food used Big Tobacco's methods to make processed foods highly addictive. We need state Attorneys General to sue for damages to public health--like they did with cigarettes. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.npr.org/2026/06/09/n...

"Martin" is 55 yrs old. "I have 22 yrs of experience picking strawberries -nearly half my life. I'll keep harvesting until I no longer can do so. I haven't taken one break today as every minute counts when working piece rate. I'm not earning enough to pay my bills." #WrFeedYou

4.3 million people have already been dropped from Snap benefits and with 14 million children already living in food insecure households they have made food pantries working past capacity. This can't continue. Vote blue everyone. #USDemocracy www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

Feeling thirsty? Don't ask AI what to do. "Each 100-word AI prompt uses up roughly one 500 ml bottle of water due to the cooling needs of data centers, researchers have estimated." #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

A "regenerative soil" farmer with 2,500 acres eliminates $1 million in input costs (eliminating fertilizer & pesticides). That's a savings of $200,000 EVERY YEAR for farmers with 500 acres. Those savings go right to the FARMER'S bottom line. It's WAY more profitable to be a regenerative farmer!

After several years, illness in 3 states, and a death, our govt found Listeria in Clover Hill Dairy soft cheese. Used like ricotta (it's actually requeson) and sold under various brand names, hard to know if it's in what we eat. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.foodsafetynews.com/2026/06/dead...

"Bonita" works in the carrots in Arvin CA. She works in the fields bundling carrots with her coworkers. They bundle the carrots into bunches of 7 and put them in a box. There are 24 bunches in a box. They get paid $3.05 for each box. #WeFeedYou

Today is World Food Safety Day. WHO counts more than 1.5 million annual deaths from unsafe food. We need protection from poisoned, contaminated, unhealthy foods. Won't happen with cuts to staff, regulations, and quitting WHO. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.foodsafetynews.com/2026/06/publ...

America used to be more humane. Now there are rules on who can eat. But a bit of good news: a federal judge has sided with 20 blue states to halt Trump's SNAP restrictions on gender id, immigration, etc. so people can feed their kids. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky apnews.com/article/trum...

California farms applied an average of 2.5m lb of Pfas per year on cropland from 2018 to 2023. Recent regulatory testing found the pesticide residues on 37% of all produce. 90% of peaches, plums and nectarines contained Pfas, while 80% of strawberries and grapes. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Just don't drink it! Raw milk has sickened dozens in Idaho from campylobacter, the bacteria so powerful that a tiny dose can make you ill. MAHA likes their milk unpasteurized, but really, what do they know about health? Be smart. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.forbes.com/sites/zachar...

Campylobacteriosis is sometimes carried by animals like cows and chickens, and can spread through raw meat.

Jamie Davis, a husband, a grandfather of 13, and third-generation row-crop farmer from Waterproof, Louisiana I proudly farm 3,200 acres in Tensas Parish, working the exact same land my grandfather once worked as a sharecropper Washington has enough career politicians; what it needs is a farmer

A great big reason why we should avoid foods with additives: The FDA does not verify safety. Nope. Our government leaves it up to Big Food to determine what chemicals are safe for us to ingest. How safe do you feel now? #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky www.npr.org/2026/05/29/n...

Poll: Rising food costs are putting Florida residents in debt Eighty-two percent of respondents said the cost of food is rising faster than their income and 70% said their financial situation has suffered in the past 12 months due to the cost of food. thecapitolist.com/poll-rising-...

Stephen Miller: “We don’t check…” and “if you say your kids are hungry, you are going to get food stamps.” That’s a lie! SNAP applicants have to verify identity, income, household size, and citizenship or immigration status. Fraud rates are historically low.

More people go hungry now than at peak pandemic. Why? No government relief programs, deep cuts in SNAP, higher food prices. US Dept. of Agriculture has halted research on food insecurity. Why measure the terrible cost of your own policies? #HealthSky #FoodSky #FitnessSky www.npr.org/2026/05/27/n...

"Soco" picks blueberries in the Visalia area. He is paid piece rate - earning $8 for a 24lb bucket. "What I earn depends heavily on the amount of fruit on the bush. Some days I make decent money. But there are other days that I don't even make minimum wage." #WeFeedYou

Beyond polluting air and water sources, these digesters also help to entrench factory farming. This pushes us even further away from our goal of a more just and sustainable food system.

"Javier" works in Oxnard, CA, harvesting strawberries. "I get paid by the box, so I have to move very fast. By the end of the day, my back and hands ache from all the movement." #WeFeedYou

Many of us are enjoying #MemorialDay with family at picnics and barbecues, but many farm workers are laboring hard to put food on our tables. Let's give a big shout out to these hard-working people. #WeFeedYou

Workers are weeding young sweet potato plants in Merced County. Rosario shares, "It's not the work itself that's hard. However , standing in the heat in an open field makes the work difficult. I need to take constant water breaks to avoid dehydration." #WeFeedYou

Did you eat cantaloupe lately? Who knew it was sickening people in 25 states. FDA now says the outbreak has ended after they traced the contaminated fruit to an importer in Pompano Beach, Florida. Could've used a better heads up... #HealthSky #FoodSky #FitnessSky marlerclark.com/70-sickened-...

It's Friday night. If you're enjoying a glass of wine, make it union wine. "Manuel" works under a UFW contract at Gallo of Sonoma. He's removing shoots from wine grapes, leaving the best ones that will grow and produce the quality grapes that make this tasty wine. #WeFeedYou

"Alex" shared this pic from where he's harvesting blueberries in Delano CA. "We make minimum wage and make a $6 bonus if we harvest more than 11 boxes. However there's not a lot of berries, so we struggle to make even the 11 required boxes." #WeFeedYou

Three fertilizer producers control 90% of the market in North America. Thanks to their dominance, they can take advantage of shocks (like Trump's Iran War) and jack up prices on farmers. Nutrien, one of the biggest, saw earnings increase 631% in Q1. Farmers get squeezed while Big Ag rakes it in.

Bill Marler's firm seeks justice for those impacted by food poisoning. He won't eat a growing list of dangerous foods. No raw milk products, raw shellfish, raw eggs (Caesar dressing), bagged greens.

Bad news: Salmonella from backyard chickens hit multiple states in April. Worse: sick people did not respond to standard antibiotics. Why? Antibiotic overuse in commercial poultry to prevent disease in crowded conditions. Get it? Animal abuse by Big Food threatens us. #FoodSky #HealthSky #FitnessSky
