New campaign, new character. 

Lappe and Collins wrote a book "Food First" in 1977. Reading it at the time, I was struck especially by one thing they said. They said that we had exploited the Third World for everything they had. At some point we were going to start feeding off our own country.

Many years later, in 1970, de Mille created…
