WHO IS FOOD JUSTICE 2.5?

Summer 2012 is here, and FOOD JUSTICE, LA is back in action!  FOOD JUSTICE 2.0 have gone their separate ways, but that doesn't mean FOOD JUSTICE HOUSE is empty.  We've realized here at FOOD JUSTICE HOUSE that the FOOD JUSTICE blogosphere doesn't really know who we are.  In light of that,  we've decided to do a quick bio of all of the current residents.  Let's meet the brave young people who make up FOOD JUSTICE 2.5:
  

Yerba Mate Lover is an up-and-coming biologist/surfer with an interest in plants, bugs, and California sunshine.  When he's not volunteering at the Huntington Hospital or milking snails, all he wants to do host some #chilltimes at the FJH.  I wish all pre-med students were cool guys like Yerba.  Fun Fact: Yerba Mate Lover saved the youngest-ever Tanzanian parliamentarian from a gorilla when trekking through the Rwandan jungle.  They remain close friends to this day.

NDK is a chill bro from Boston who likes cold bronsons, fresh vegetables, and sports.  He's captain of the Frisbee Team and president of Well Fed, the Occidental cooking club.  When he gets back from hiking through the jungles of South Asia, he's going to be working with various community organizing and social-justice advocacy groups to bring the cause of FOOD JUSTICE to all of LA.  But don't worry, ladies, he's not just a nice, Mr. Perfect: NDK was arrested last fall for breaking into a bank with a group of anti-Fed anarchists.  #occupymyheart.  Fun Fact: NDK has contributed his vocal talents to Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and has cameo appearances in Jersey Girl, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and Finding Forrester.

Zoë Butler is the president of FEAST, the Occidental College gardening club.  She's an art major, but she spends most of her time raising chickens and playing with worms.  She recently bought a snow-cone machine, and plans to pioneer the genre of FOOD JUST shaved ice.  She's researching food clusters this summer and babysitting her nephew.  What a cool kid.  Fun Fact: Zoë is from Texas.

Noodle Boy Gabriel Mathews is a FJ HOUSE pledge resident who thinks he's cool, but he's not he is.  He was in Russia for the past semester, but he's back in LA to spend his summer studying commas or something aporia in the works of Brett Easton Ellis David Foster Wallace.  He doesn't have a job, he doesn't know anything knows a little bit about FOOD JUSTICE, and he's not even good okay at cooking noodles.  I wish he didn't live here  I'm glad he lives here.  Fun Fact: There is nothing Some things are fun about Noodle Boy Gabriel.

Little is known about Ben "The Best" Tuthill.  I bet he's a cool guy...

The next few months are going to be great.  Be on the lookout for great posts about tasty recipes, hip restaurants, cool farms, and fine tea.  They're going to make movies of this summer.  Get ready.  FOOD JUSTICE is here to stay.
