50 Shades of Beige: A Convenience Food Story | Gemma Whitelock | TEDxBrayfordPool
What is it about the thought of something fried or wrapped in pastry that makes the majority of us weak at the knees? In a world where beige convenience food is more accessible than ever before, Gemma explores the hidden society of 'veg dodgers' and discusses why it might be time for some mothering when it comes to the food that we order in.
Gemma is a big cheerleader for sustainable food and eating more veggies and ‘good stuff’ for the benefit of our health and overall mental wellness.
After 12 years of working in creative education and having to take a pretty massive career detour to focus on family, Gemma started exploring practical ways to support the fallout of having a child with mental health challenges. Working with the Food Foundation as a Veg Advocate really helped her to bring things into sharp focus… Food was seemingly both the cause and solution for so many of people who feel sucked into a mental health wormhole. Gemma now uses her transferable skills from her time in education to find creative ways to make healthy food taste better and tick all of the same boxes as the comfort food options that we often crave.
Through her plant-based food business, Gemma provides talks, meal kits and develops recipes to help everyone find a love of veg... even the lifelong members of the salad dodgers club! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
