The phrase 100 Mile Diet  was coined in 2005 by James Mackinnon and Alisa Smith of Vancouver, BC, Canada, to describe their one-year local eating experiment that was chronicled on an independent new and culture website, The Tyee. Their diet experiment consisted of eating food produced or grown within 100 miles of their home apartment. This included not only local produce, but also ensuring that any meat or dairy products came from animals that ate local feed and were packaged locally. The inventors continue to try to eat locally grown food, but they also now consume food grown outside of the 100 mile radius.

At Divine Feast Catering we pride ourselves to purchase local products first, we want to support our local farmers first, then we look to Canadian products.   Not everybody has adapted to this lifestyle and some choices of food are not local or Canadian. We want our clients to experience the best including their food choices, therefore we do not limit our food choices to the 100 Mile Diet rules.
