  • Summary

  • Coming to you from Nagasaki, Japan! Mark and his partner, Kathleen Finlay, talk to each other about their trip to one of Japan's school lunch centers, a place that serves 1,750 students and serves as an excellent model for what a progressive lunch program looks like: carefully curated and delicious menu, cooked from fresh and seasonal ingredients; made affordable for everyone; no time limit; a focus on service and community and making food a part of education. PLUS: More from food stylist Barrett Washburne, who talks to Kate about the laws around food styling and weird things that are done to foods — like supergluing a turkey.
