The
Omnivore's Dilemma: This is a great read if you're interested in learning about food. Michael Pollan covers everything from fast food to "organic" Twinkies. It's a really eye opening account of what we put in our bodies and where the food comes from. I really like that the author traces, or attempts to trace, everything back to the ground. All food, no matter how processed, had to originate from the earth at some point. It all just usually gets unrecognizably processed down to almost nothing and then used to flavor our coffee or dounuts without us even knowing. I also like that Pollan compares a fast food meal to one cooked and eaten at home. The memories created from his meal are something that will stay with his family forever, whereas the fast food foray was probably forgotten the very next week. I can remember picking strawberries with my mother at 4. We took them home and made homemade strawberry jam. I swear, I've never tasted a better jam than those jars we canned that year. Even though I was such a little girl, that experience made a huge impression on me. How much of an impression does purchasing store bought, processed jam make on a person? I know I never remember buying jam from the store until I run out! I really advise purchasing this book if you're interested in eating better. Yes, Pollan goes into extreme detail about where our food comes from, so it can get really scary at times. It's important to have the facts though, so we can start making better decisions about our health!
