For most of history, people have eaten according to their cultural traditions. Now, we have "nutritionism," an ideology promoted by science and the food industry that has led to the Western diet and served to undermine our health. Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore's Dilemma, traces the rise of this ideology and proposes an alternative approach to eating that promises to improve both our health and the environment. |
