Chef José Andrés and Politico Reporter Anna Palmer join Spike and Monica to introduce the political side of food. Chef José recalls finding his political voice when a U.S. Senator first came to his restaurant and tells us what he thinks is unique about America’s food system. He also tells the story of how a Spaniard fell in love with America. Anna Palmer reflects on how the food policy landscape has shifted politically over the years and what it would take for Congress to be motivated to overhaul our food policy.
