Hippie culture changed the world in so many ways but....

Hippies gave us Apple Computers and Google, Paul Mitchell Hair products, Patron spirits, Nike, and silicon valley.

Silicon Valley predates hippies by about a decade.

Yeah, but Silicon Valley as we know it is definitely indebted to hippie culture. For instance, all that Whole Earth Catalog nonsense.

Bingo!

"Who invented a food vs. who gave various foods a cultural push and the various associations are different discussions."

Well then, as a stoner in the late 70s and all the 80s, I think I am personally responsible for all the Mexican restaurants.

...or at least for Taco Bell keeping their drive-thru open until 2am.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Ben and Jerry's ice cream

The only thing I know about Hippie Food is the things I bought, and ate, at The Grateful Dead shows, or similar jam band concerts. I recall huge burritos that contained zero meat, yet were amazingly delicious, and made me feel like a million bucks. There was no gut bomb experience.

Each time, after experiencing tasty, healthy food, I’d promise myself that I would start eating better in my everyday life. Yet, I’d return to my humble day-to-day routines, and it would be the same greasy, animal protein diet that I’ve eaten my entire life. I’ll probably die relatively young with the stench of beef on my breath.

The only edible stuff I ever bought at a Dead show was grilled cheese and magic mushrooms.
