This week, we explore the social wonders of cooking. Good food is good for the body, and making it can be good for the soul. Cuisine can connect generations, break down barriers, and give people a purpose in life. We take a look at some initiatives creating a positive social impact through the culinary world. We also talk to French gastronomy star Thierry Marx (pictured), whose goal is to help disadvantaged youth, former prisoners and the unemployed find jobs and a purpose through cooking.
