The film is co-produced by Silverbush’s husband, “Top Chef” judge Tom Colicchio, along with another well-known culinary superstar, Mario Batali.
“In a country as wealthy as ours, it’s amazing that so many people are going without. Forty-nine million people experience hunger in this nation, 17 million of which are children,” Silverbush asserts.
