A pocket compendium of food wisdom-from the author of The Omnivore's Dilemma and In Defense of Food
Michael Pollan, our nation's most trusted resource for food-related issues, offers this indispensible guide for anyone concerned about health and food. Simple, sensible, and easy to use, Food Rules is a set of memorable rules for eating wisely, many drawn from a variety of ethnic or cultural traditions. Whether at the supermarket or an all-you-can-eat-buffet, this handy, pocket-size resource is the perfect guide for anyone who would like to become more mindful of the food we eat.
I generally follow this author, but _Food Rules_ was an absolute waste of time and money for me. Fast food and processed foods are bad for us? DUH My 2 year old grandaughter knows that! It takes less than 2 seonds to skim a label and decide just how close to actual food a product really is, and anyone with a 3rd grade reading level can do it.
