As a chef and food activist, she "may be the most influential figure in the past 30 years of the American kitchen," says Gourmet magazine. Waters, 61, talked with TIME's BARBARA ISENBERG about why consuming and appreciating natural foods is so important...
...taste and judge for themselves. You learn which is the Red Haven peach and which the Faye Alberta, and you can become very sophisticated about peaches if you pay attention. But even if you don't, you're likely to experience great-tasting food because it is ripe, fresh and in season. The organic movement is said to be growing 300% a year in the U.S., which leads me to believe that people are really hungry for not only the food but also the values that come along with...
