Food’n’health is the new rock’n’roll

But something interesting has been

happening in Ireland in the past few years, which is bringing about a synthesis of food, and healthfulness.
The process began when Dave and Steve Flynn published The Happy Pear. For a decade, the brothers had been slogging away in Greystones, running a shop and restaurant that focused on plant-based, healthful eating. They made little videos for YouTube, and had a cult following.
Their book changed all that. A friend sharing a house with four 20-something women in Dublin told me that three of the four had their own copy of the book.
