In Defense of Food, Michael Pollan, Penguin

Michael Pollan, the Michael Moore of food, is almost to the point of convincing me that I should put down this piece of pie I am eating and stop poisoning myself, stop being a tool of the processed food industry, stop listening to the government, and take control of my body. Well the governemnt part is easy, but reducing my pastry and carnivorous ways will not be. But I am now much better informed as to what exactly is killing me in my diet. Whether I can truly change what I eat or not will depend if I can summon the will power I seemed to have in 1980 when I finally gave up smoking for good.
