Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual
More and more we are all becoming a lot more aware of what we eat.
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.
There are many other food guides out there, but few are as simple as this one. The book is divided into 3 parts:
- What should I eat? – “avoid food products that contain more than five ingredients”, and “avoid foods that contain high-fructose corn syrup”.
- What kind of food should I eat? Includes “Eat mostly plants, especially leaves”, “eat your colors”, and “the whiter the bread, the sooner you will be dead.”
- How should I eat? Includes “pay more, eat less,” “eat less,” and “limit your snacks to unprocessed plant food.”
All in all, an essential read for all and a must for all homes.
