I guide for eating? I think I know how to do that…nope I was
wrong.
This very short book works on three basic principles that
Pollan has come up with while writing his earlier books (The
Omnivore’s Dilemma and In
Defense Of Food). The three principles and the sections of the book are:
Eat food, mostly plants, and not too much. Each section then elaborates on
these ideas and how to work within them.
I think this is a fantastic little book! There aren’t a lot
of new ideas floating around in it but it does help toe cement some of the
things you know and should be doing. There are a few great gems in here such
as: “”It’s not food if it arrived through your car window,” “Eat all the junk food
you want as long as you cook it yourself,” and “Don’t get your fuel from the
same place your car does.” The book also explains why it is good to avoid
processed food and industrially farmed food.
Buy it for yourself and then give it as a gift to someone
you know
