...police, who watch, arms folded, the onlookers sing - no, shout - things they wouldn't dare say. The biggest singalong moment comes in Marima Nzara, a lament about a man with a big mouth who chases all the workers away. "You have lost the plot," everyone sings. "You have plowed hunger."

People can't resist food--we didn't evolve for food being cheap; we evolved for food being scarce. So we may need science to save us from our human nature. Food without fat--it's like sex without having babies, and you know how great a revolution that triggered...
