Foodie festival’s fare is cheap and healthy
San Francisco Chronicle
tmpl –> The Eat Real Festival featured farmers brewers and street vendors with trucks selling Mexican food falafel and barbecue. Between bites of soul food gelato pies and fried chickpeas the crowd listened to live music watched presentations on farming and other green topics and soaked in the sun. In one of the more popular demonstrations Saturday onlookers witnessed a contest in which teams competed to break down a hind-quarter steer. Several festival organizers were involved in last year’s Slow Food Nation in San Francisco which included a victory garden farmers’ market and a food hall that cost $65 to enter. They decided they wanted to make healthy environmentally conscious food available to a large audience that could not or did not want to spend that kind of money.

As the group played on the Los Barrios stage they called for “one strength” among Mexicans Puerto Ricans Cubans and other Spanish-speaking Americans. The appeal was echoed often during the event and this year it was particularly fitting. Viva has a different coordinator this year Barry Dolins who also runs the city’s blues festival.
