FoodWISE, convenience, my father’s jacket—and COVID impacts in Washington state and elsewhere

Gigi Berardi reads FoodWISE, Our Personal World of Food, about what we are buying when we buy “convenience.” Stories tonight include pandemic impacts close to home (Blaine, WA), as reported in the New York Times, here: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/18/us/coronavirus-canada-border-washington.html And those hitting very close to home—faculty layoffs, https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/16/us/coronavirus-college-faculty-layoffs.html, with University of Akron reporting one of the largest layoffs—full (unionized) professors. How can they do that: cut programs. Image: https://birchbaychamber.com/
