{Trib Local} Interview with Chicagoland Food Swap curators @frenchfoodiemom & @westoftheloop

On Sunday, June 3, 2012, Chicagoland Food Swap will be hosting their third swap at Hinsdale’s Savory Spice Shop on 42 South Washington Street from 3:00 P.M. – 5:00 P.M.

The idea of a food swap is nothing new. Taking your own handmade foods and swapping, or bartering it for another’s dates back to ages past.

Today, food swaps are an ever popular trend that is big in cities like Los Angeles and New York City. As people are looking for more and more homemade goods and steering away from pre-packaged items, the age-old idea is once again anew.

I interviewed the curators of the Chicagoland Food Swap, Vanessa Druckman (@frenchfoodiemom) and Emily Paster (@westoftheloop) and asked them 10 questions about their food swap.
