Read by Robert Fass.
As abundant and safe as the American food supply appears to be, the state of our health reveals the presence of staggering deficiencies in both the system that produces food and the forces that regulate it. Bittman leaves no issue unexamined; agricultural practices, government legislation, fad diets, and corporate greed all come under scrutiny and show that the issues governing what ends up in our market basket and on our tables are both complex and often deliberately confusing.

Compilation of articles submitted by thatssuper1 on August 13, 2015, 7:38pm This book is a compilation of Bittman's NYT columns. It is informative, but because of what it is, there is a lot of repetition.
