ALT1:... that Oglala Lakota chef Sean Sherman(pictured) abandoned the use of non-native ingredients after having an epiphany and realizing that Oglala foods were not represented in US cuisine? Source: “Then a strange fact struck him: The food of his people, the Oglala Sioux, was completely unrepresented in American cuisine…“I just had an epiphany,” he said, “I should be doing the food of my ancestry and my heritage.” here and “he decided one day to abandon all ingredients that are not indigenous or regional to areas in U.S. and Canada.” here
The only problem that I can see is that the lead can be expanded more to summarize the article's content better. After that is taken care of, this is good to go. I prefer the first hook. SL93 (talk) 01:11, 6 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
