I'm about 75% finished, so I don't know how Pollan will wrap it up, but as of now it's leaving me with a sense of "the world is doomed." There's a vicious cycle that extends well past the food industry (which in itself is an incredibly large monster) that leads humans, specifically those following a Western diet, to unhealthy lifestyles.
What's scary is that these unhealthy lifestyles and unhealthy foods are marketed to us as preferred, healthy choices. Even the food scientists, according to Pollan, don't seem to have a grasp on what's healthy and what's not.
So...what's for dinner tonight?
