Muddy Waters

Alice Waters did a lengthy Q&A with Al Jazeera America, and as usual, it's full of quotable gems. Among the revelations herein: Waters now brings her own mint for a hot drink while flying ("I love that I can influence, reach people through an aroma"), has eaten at McDonald's once ("I was surprised it didn't have taste from my point of view") and thinks Americans eat too much meat ("there are countries around the world that think of protein as a combination of grains and vegetables.")
