Consider This from NPR · A 'bittersweet' milestone: a million meals per day in Gaza · 11 Feb 2026 podcast

It's Consider This from NPR.

World Central Kitchen is now serving one million hot meals every single day in Gaza.

But in a press release, it writes, quote, progress does not mean the crisis is over.

This week, I spoke with Chef Jose Andres about the announcement and what could actually end this crisis.

And as you're working to intensify this effort, I know that personal safety for your workers is still an issue as the Israeli military continues airstrikes in Gaza, which it says are for targeting militants or responding to Hamas attacks.

How worried are you about the safety of your workers still, even as the ceasefire has come down for a few months?

The holy month of Ramadan is approaching in about a week.

How is your organization preparing for that to try to help people observe during that month?

It is breathtaking to hear you describe the scale, the level of the effort that's underway right now.

I mean, serving just one million meals per day is remarkable.

But yes, this is a territory with, what, a pre-war population of a little over two million.

So as much as you are doing now, let me ask you this, Jose.

What will it take in your mind?

What conditions would need to be in place for your operation to be able to finally start scaling down its presence there?

José Andrés, chef, restaurateur, and founder of the humanitarian group World Central Kitchen.

Thank you so much, José, for everything that you're doing.
