In this clip, we sit down with author Sandor Katz (The Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved: Inside America’s Underground Food Movements and Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods) as he recounts the story of how he became involved in food activism, where his passion for fermented foods came from, and the political side of fermentation.

Fermentation, says Katz, is about reclaiming our food. Applying the principles of mass production to our food has been a huge failure, in terms of the environmental destruction, the damage to our health, and the diminishment of economic security. Take control of your food: pickle something!
