How Food Brings Us Together

My guest on The Doctor’s Farmacy this week, Chef José Andrés, explains that food has the ability to empower people and create change. He says, “One plate of food can change the life of others. We all are citizens of the world. What’s good for you, must be good for all. If you are lost, share a plate of food with a stranger—you will find who you are.”

José Andrés is an internationally-recognized culinary innovator, New York Times best-selling author, educator, humanitarian, chef, and owner of ThinkFoodGroup, the award-winning collective of nearly 30 restaurants throughout the country and beyond. A naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Spain, Andrés has been a tireless advocate for immigration reform and on July 4, 2014 was named by President Barack Obama as that year’s “Outstanding American by Choice.” José was twice named to Time’s “100 Most Influential People” list and recipient of the 2015 National Humanities Medal.
