First, there was the egg. The fertilized egg, to be precise. It provided the basis of the dietary model that the eating designer Marije Vogelzang explained in the packed festival auditorium, along with the egg bank she devised. Another concept that demonstrated the Dutchwoman’s creative praxis relating to the consideration and rethinking of present-day eating culture targeted the fact that children can learn to love vegetables when given the task of nibbling kohlrabi, carrots, and co. into shapes, which accustoms them to their taste. After a lecture innovative concepts of urban food production were discussed in a departure Talk.
