Résumé :
We don't think much about how food gets to our tables, or what had to happen to fill our supermarket's produce section with perfectly round red tomatoes and its meat counter with slabs of beautifully marbled steak.

schema:reviewBody""Most of us have a fairly abstract understanding of what happens on a farm. In America's Food, Harvey Blatt gives us the specifics." "After taking us on a tour of the American food system-not only the basic food groups but soil, grain farming, organic food, genetically modified food, food processing, and diet-Blatt reminds us that we aren't powerless. Once we know the facts about food in America, we can change things by the choices we make as consumers, as voters, and as ethical human beings."--BOOK JACKET."
