Our Food, Our Future
Zen’s Wake-Up Call
Zen Honeycutt didn’t start out as an activist. She started as a mother whose children were sick. When doctors didn’t have the answers, she turned to the food they were eating—and what she found was alarming.
“I started studying the food, finding out what was in it, how much, and what was it doing.”
Her research uncovered something we rarely hear from the people meant to protect us: almost everything tested—from bread, milk, and eggs to beer, wine, and even breast milk—was contaminated with glyphosate.
“Almost everything tested has been presenting with concerning levels of glyphosate.”
It isn’t just the contamination that is alarming—it’s the political shielding of the corporations behind it. Right now, in Congress, provisions like Section 453 (a liability shield for pesticides) and Section 507 (which allows toxic sewage sludge as ‘fertilizer’) are moving quietly, tucked into bills the public rarely reads. Both protect chemical giants, not the families who suffer the consequences.
Zen makes it plain: our system is broken, our food is toxic, and our children are paying the price.
This is not a fringe concern. It echoes what Thomas Jefferson once warned:
“If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny.”
Jefferson’s words ring true today. The danger isn’t just in the chemicals, but in the capture of our institutions—the quiet agreements that prioritize corporate profit over public health.
Zen’s voice reminds us that this fight isn’t abstract. It’s about our kids, our communities, and whether we are free to nourish ourselves with real food instead of toxins disguised as progress.
Join the fight: Watch Zen’s full discussion and see why this movement matters. Share it, talk about it, and contact your representatives to oppose liability shields and toxic sludge provisions. Our voices are the only counterweight to a system that otherwise runs unchecked.
