In Defense of Food ...by Michael Pollan (author of Omnivore's Dilema)This book discussed the issue of Food....what we are led to eat...for socio-cultural reasons or for the quest of perfect health via nutrient seeking and marketing buzz words. It also goes on to discuss consumerism and how the world of processed convenience foods has led us as a nation towards obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
Reading this book helped me revise my view on what Eating Deliciously means...it's not just about nutrition, but also on the company you share your meals with. Bon Appetit'!
***Michael Pollan is featured in the Oscar nominated documentary "Food, Inc."
