There are so many films around food, as you probably are already aware, 2 more favorites (not on your list) are 'Babette's Feast' and 'King Corn'. Reading the first chapter of Omnivore's Dilemma ties directly into the Ellis/Cheney film. Wish I was there to sign up, best of luck with it!Rebecca/CUpShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15125584465265295199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26643528.post-5080960079130256012009-01-22T23:09:00.000-08:002009-01-22T23:09:00.000-08:00I will "shadow" this class at every meal from now ...I will "shadow" this class at every meal from now on!
