A range of problems, from the rise of chronic diseases to human rights violations to accelerating climate change, has been linked to the way we produce, consume, and dispose of food. Fed up? Makisawsaw: Recipes x Ideas is an invitation to become more involved in the issues surrounding the food on our tables. Inspired by the widespread boycott of condiments made by one of the Philippines' largest food manufacturers after the violent dispersal of its factory workers on strike on July 30, 2018, the book features essays written by food access and justice advocates and activists on how the way we eat can be an exercise of greater agency in the world around us and a site of resistance, whether through personal choices or political action. The book also contains 36 easy recipes of vegan condiments and main dishes that need no special appliance or expert cooking skills to make healthier plant-based eating affordable and fuss-free, giving us more energy for greater involvement. Makisawsaw na!
