Last night, the Park Slope Food Co-op held its monthly members meeting—and although it wasn't the much anticipated meeting to vote about whether a vote should be held to ban Israeli products, the meeting was still chock full of amazing quotes about biodegradable bags, the culture of criminalization, and "fascist food."
