Top 16 TED Talks for Foodists
This week the amazing TED conference is going on in Vancouver. For those of you who have never heard of a TED talk until today, you’re welcome.
TED collects the most interesting people in the world and gives them the stage for 20 minutes. Inevitably they will expand your mind in some way or another, even in topics you didn’t think you were interested in.
To commemorate the awesomeness which is TED, I compiled a list of my favorite TED talks to educate and inspire foodists. These talks focus on food, health, habits, happiness and quality of life. I’d love to hear which are your favorites and what you enjoy most about them.
Stay thirsty, my foodists.

Think I will while away some of my lunchtimes this week watching the TED talks from those I’ve never heard of – thanks!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! I did NOT know about Ted Talks and “really enjoyed” is not even close to describing it for me. I skimmed through and listened to one on your list and thought it was good. then I listened to another and thought it was better than the first. I am remodeling a 1967 house and while I was retexturizing the ceilings and painting walls, I listened to all that you sent as well as the Primer found on the About Ted Talks page. So looking forward to filling my head with lots of great ideas over the next several months.
Woo hoo!
And this one is pretty good too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ0SME6Z9rw
