In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto

— filed under: , ,

Author: Michael Pollan Food. There's plenty of it around, and we all love to eat ti. So why should anyone need to defend it? Because most of what we're consuming today is not food, and how we're consuming it--in the car, in front of teh TV, and increasingly alone--is not really eating... Pollan proposes a new (and very old) answer to the question of what we should eat that comes down to seven simple but liberating words: "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants."
