EP. 179: Have you ever bitten into a slice of bread and thought about the journey from wheat field to your plate? I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jon Olinto, co-founder of One Mighty Mill, as we explore the truth behind today's bread! We slice through modern wheat's potential gluten link, uncover the beauty of ancient stone milling, and challenge the food system's "fresh" facade. From sourcing integrity to the profound impact of dietary choices, join us as we bake a healthier future, slice by slice, with small businesses like One Mighty Mill.
