Slap chopping the American diet

Slap and chop your diet? So much for slow food.

Maybe without intending to do so, this video ends up being a pretty good deconstruction of our food system. As a humorous remix of Steve Porter’s Slap Chop, it decontextualizes popular (mis)conceptions of food: that it’s boring; it’s something needing to be done quickly and on the run; it’s a matter of convenience (not quality); a technological solution makes food better; and there’s nothing like a little violence and aggression to improve your diet! The only thing missing is a way to do this in your car.

Thanks Andree!
