A MUST READ; MICHAEL POLLAN’S
THE OMNIVORE’S DILEMMA
In this day and age when the vast majority of Americans are two or more generations removed from the farm our nation’s agricultural chain and food supply is largely taken for granted and for the most part goes unnoticed. Even for people like me who have spent their lives as producers, at the bottom of the food chain, it is difficult to comprehend the complexities of pricing, processing, designing, marketing and distribution of all the foods the American consumer has to choose from.
For all who are concerned about quality, health, the environment and the future THE OMNIVORE’S DILEMMA is a must read. Michael Pollan does a fantastic job providing the facts and connecting the dots to put in perspective one of the most complex systems of the industrial age. His first hand accounts of our food from the field to the plate will make you look at grocery shopping and dinning in a different light!
