摘要:
What should we have for dinner? When you can eat just about anything nature (or the supermarket) has to offer, deciding what you should eat will inevitably stir anxiety, especially when some of the foods might shorten your life. Today, buffeted by one food fad after another, America is suffering from a national eating disorder. As the cornucopia of the modern American supermarket and fast food outlet confronts us with a bewildering and treacherous landscape, what's at stake becomes not only our own and our children's health, but the health of the environment that sustains life on earth. Pollan follows each of the food chains--industrial food, organic or alternative food, and food we forage ourselves--from the source to the final meal, always emphasizing our coevolutionary relationship with the handful of plant and animal species we depend on. The surprising answers Pollan offers have profound political, economic, psychological, and even moral implications for all of us.--From publisher description.

This book is simply excellent. On a quest to understand where my food comes from, I stumbled across this book long before it was famous. I was blown away. I still can't sit at a restaurant table without the thought crossing my mind, "I wonder where these ingredients come from?" At the grocery stores, I pay close attention to the farms on which my foods were grown, and I have grown such a deep appreciation for local farming. CSA all the way!I suggest anyone read this book - Pollen is an excellent author who makes a vast amount of information very accessible. He also takes so many different sides to the story of nutrition that it is removed from the "extremist" genre to a much more objective point of view - at least as much as it could be.Read it. Hopefully it will change your life in the positive way it did mine.

Do you really want to find out where your dinner comes from? Ask yourself this question before you pick up this book. Michael Pollan will tell you and the answers aren’t pretty. Pollan starts in the cornfield and follows the food chain all the way to our mouths, taking every opportunity to talk with the people who produce our food and help them in their daily tasks.Pollan is critical of the special interests that drive America to produce an overabundance of poor-quality food for mass consumption but he shows the reader why the system has evolved this way and how we might change it, on a personal level and on a national level. This book presents an elegant argument for responsible eating that will forever change the way you buy, prepare, and consume food.
