The National Geographic Channel features Barton Seaver, Program Coordinator of our Sustainable Seafood and Health Initiative, in this comprehensive food story we've all been craving: EAT: The Story of Food.

A six-hour mini-series event produced by National Geographic Studios in association with Creative Differences, the special satisfies every question you've ever had, and some you haven't, about the evolution of food over the course of humankind—from our ancestors throwing raw meat onto a fire for the first time, to teams of lab technicians perfecting the crunch of a potato chip. More important, it will show how this evolution of what we eat and how we eat it has actually defined human civilization and cultures around the globe.
