Interview
Eat It: Matthew Evans on All Things Milk
Matthew Evans is a food activist, chef, regenerative farmer, writer, and media presenter, and he joins Cam and Matt for a special long-form interview about his new book, MILK: The truth, the lies, and the unbelievable story of the original superfood. In an era where dairy consumption has plummeted 15% in the last ten years, and with the many concerns about the environmental impact of plant milks, Australians are more interested than ever in the significance of the milk they drink. While milk seems to be everywhere, it's often misunderstood. In MILK, Matthew celebrates this noble liquid and delves into its alternatives, from formula to Mylk, and elucidates exactly what milk is and can be. MILK explores our complicated relationship to the milk we drink as adults and as babies, and is a comprehensive exploration of the science, history and politics of what makes mammals different from every other life form on earth.
