FoodPriceTruth.org’s Capitol Hill BBQ a Resounding Success!
In case you didn’t hear the news, FoodPriceTruth.org had a BBQ on Capitol Hill last Thursday night and it was quite the success. More than 700 people, including nearly 500 Hill staffers and several members of Congress, came to the Rayburn Building Courtyard to learn the truth about food prices.
At the event, everyone was given a menu with information about how much oil is to blame for the price increases of each of the foods they were eating, the beer they were drinking, and even the silverwear they were using as cutlery.
Some fun pictures from the BBQ here.
