Food-Related Stories

By Gaby Melian

Book Overview

In this edition of the Pocket Change Collective, meet chef and food activist Gaby Melian as she shares her life story and belief that our relationship with food can be a powerful motivator for change.

"The pages are dripping with delicious smells and tastes, and will give you a new way to look at both cooking and what it means to have a plan."--Molly Birnbaum, editor in chief, America's Test Kitchen Kids

"We should all be like Gaby--cook a little more, share a little more, and smell a little more."--Claire Saffitz, New York Times bestselling author and chef

In Food-Related Stories, chef and activist Gaby Melian shares her journey with food--from growing up in Argentina to her time as a street vendor and later as Bon App tit's test kitchen manager. Powerful and full of heart, Melian explores how we can develop a relationship with food that's personal, healthy, and thoughtful--and how that's a form of activism in its own right.

Pocket Change Collective was born out of a need for space. Space to think. Space to connect. Space to be yourself. And this is your invitation to join us. This is a series of small books with big ideas from today's leading activists and artists.
