We've
got a review of Michael Pollan's Omnivores
Dilemma in our next issue, but the way these
things work, his new book arrived from Amazon a week ago. I
started into In Defense of Food
immediately, and then final proofing intervened (and as soon
as that finished, there were lots of things like mowing the
lawn that needed to be done). I'll let you know more as I
get to the end of it.
I was working on the new Farmers' Markets site when I
checked a quote from Joan Gussow and found this video where
they discuss the book. The book is more like an essay and if
you've bought into the eat regional, seasonal argument
already, it's a persuasively pleaded argument which you
won't need, except you may be convinced to cut down on meat.
Pollan's manifesto is summed up in the heading to this blog,
and you'll understand when you watch the video.
