What happens when eating well isn’t a choice—but a calculation?
When the cost of food forces impossible choices, what would you give up to keep your family fed? In this episode, This Robin Hood Moment welcomes Leslie Gordon, President & CEO of Food Bank For New York City, to explore how rising grocery prices, stagnant wages, and looming federal cuts to programs like SNAP are reshaping the daily realities for millions of New Yorkers. Leslie shares on-the-ground insights into how families weigh food against other essentials—housing, child care, healthcare—and what it will take to ensure no New Yorker has to choose between eating dinner and keeping the lights on.
Tune in for insightful discussions on shaping policies to uplift communities and #FightPoverty. Subscribe for more episodes wherever you listen to your podcasts.
