But this is an error of taste, not a fatal mistake, and though it's undeniably irritating, it fails to diminish the play's impact, just as Mr. Albee's occasional lapses into preachiness ("We are not talking about the rights we pretend we give ourselves in this bewildered land of ours") are mere surface flaws.

What I don't like about sustainable foodies and I'm considered one of them is that we carry an air of preachiness about food. (No one wants to be told what to eat, whether it's by your mother or by a group of holier-than-thou chefs.) But true sustainability is about more than just deciding to cook with local ingredients or not allowing your child to have corn syrup.
