Steven Pinker goes by Steve, so people in the psych field usually call him "Steve". (Source: also in the psych field)

One of the key facts that became public knowledge during the incidents in Baltimore, Ferguson, etc., is that there is no official record of civilian shootings by police officers, making it harder to gauge and appreciate the scale of the issue as OP said.

I'm not Rene Redzepi but in case he doesn't answer, you should also hit Relae and Restaurant AOC.

Hi Chef, Thanks so much for taking the time to do this AMA. I have so much respect for what you do and dining at Noma is a dream of mine. I have a handful of questions, in case any of them catch your eye:

A lot of people in America at least are learning about and eating Nordic food for the first time through “New Nordic” cuisine inspired by yours, Christian Puglisi, etc. Do you think that this is a good representation of Nordic cuisine to new palates and sensibilities, or do you wish that more traditional Nordic cuisine was more well-known abroad?

What is your favorite dining city in America?

You don’t seem to use a great deal of dairy in your cooking. What’s your favorite kind of cheese?

Are there any fermentation projects you’ve tried that just haven’t worked at all? some vegetable or fruit out there that simply could not translate to a good pickle or fermentation?

Again, thank you very much for taking the time to do this today!
