Table Scraps is a blog maintained by Bailey Norwood, one of the editors of Food & Resource Dialogues. It's purpose is to explore what is happening in the world of agriculture, food and resources; to discover topics that would make interesting FRD articles; to help readers understand different perspectives on controversial topics—including why intelligent people form different opinions; and to experiment with different ways of applying economics to contemporary topics.
The entries in Table Scraps are not peer-reviewed items of research, nor do they represent the views of anyone in particular (not even the blog's author!).
