Summary:The church must recover a model and practice of piety that includes something like a kosher sensibility regarding food. The prevalence of unhealthy diets, unhealthy farming practices, unhealthy effects on the environment, “food insecurity,” “food deserts,” and food chauvinism points to the need to reconsider the importance of God’s second mandate to humanity, namely, to care for Garden Earth. Christians cannot seek first the king of God or pray that God’s will be done on earth while simultaneously disregard the importance of daily bread.
