Both are bullshite marketing concepts, to some degree. Which has a higher bullshite value to you and why?

Good question.
I like to think that if a restaurant is advertising sustainable, they are really looking into it, but I have my doubts.
Farm to Table implies local, in season ingredients. I can see that as being a scam too.
Hmmm. I am torn.

It's kinda like their obsession with calling things hipster

Sustainable has a much more snooty feel.
Farm to table is for the wannabes.

Do you really have a restaurant?
I asked yesterday in the long thread, then thought about it and decided it might have been hypothetical since the thread was hypothetical.
I was dum yesterday.

Would you say that Ye Olde College Inn's farm to table is bullshite? Their farm is literally right in the back of their restaurant.

Sustainable is only seafood restaurants right?
I don't know if there are any true "farm to table" restaurants in LA. I consider "farm to table" restaurants to have their own farm and either be located on the farm, or nearby.

Closest thing to farm to table I can think of in town is La Provence.

Not sure about that. They are having a cat shortage in Viet Nam.

as a former person emplyed in the green industry i must say "sustainable" is if not the biggest bullshite word of our time in any manner.

Farm to table is great as long as it's not just marketing BS. Don't put out of season shite on your menu and claim to be "farm to table"....that phrase does not imply a stop at airport customs to most purchasers. And don't serve dishes with 17 imported ingredients and then credit 1 of those ingredients to a local farmer...
It's as bad as the abuse of the word "artisanal". No, Dominos, your pizza is not hand crafted by artisans. LINK
