How would Gladwell respond to the responsibility question from September 15th?
I think Gladwell would respond to the responsibility question from September 15th first by saying that none of the information in The Omnivor’s Delema surprised him since he is clearly highly educated about mass produced food as shown in his article. Then I believe he would say that the producer of the knowledge of what goes into food has the responsibility of not telling you about transparently because when the revolution of turning fast food into healthy food occurs, if they tell you the food is healthy, you wont want to eat it because people associate bad food with good taste and good food with bad taste, and there wont really be a revolution at all. I also believe Gladwell would say that if we were to discover of this information that is being kept from us that our responsibility as a knower would be to try and be open to the possibility that even healthy foods can taste good.
