### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    History
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2021*

This interesting but sent two copies of this book I orded 1 but changed me for only one

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A complex history of how we got into this mess with our food.
  

*by F***E on Reviewed in Canada on 10 September 2021*

This is a book that all government policy analysts should read. It details how we arrived at the mess we are in with our food supply. Mark Bittman not only details the effects that the industrialization of our food supply has had on our health as a population but also the racist policies which have gone along with it. As long as we allow corporate profits to control our food system (with its Ultra Processed Foods - UPFs) we are unlikely to survive as a species. We need to get back to small mixed farms feeding communities healthy, nutrient dense foods.This book covers a great deal of ground centered on food and in my reading of it comes to a similar conclusion that Chris Smaje came to in his book "A Small Farm Future." Taken together these two books offer us a direction which could, if adopted, save our species from self destruction.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A highly opinionated stream of consciousness
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on 28 March 2021*

I have great respect for Mark Bittman. He has devoted a good chunk of his working life to helping regular people make healthier food choices. Nearly everyone in my orbit has one or more of his cookbooks, and some of his recipes have been my go-tos for years. But this book is one long harangue, liberally laced and larded with opinion and an extreme surplus of adjectives. Reading it, I felt like I was being hit over the head over and over. Where were the editors?Bittman is outraged about the efforts made for more than a century now to control people’s dietary intake without appropriate regard for their health, but the uncountable expressions of that outrage made for tedious reading (for me). However, the many references cited are valuable for people who want to do further reading on this topic. Occasionally, a fact jumps out that prompts reflection. For example, reading that 300 gallons of water is required to process one pound of sugar has to make you think about how much sugar you’re consuming, even if you are at all skeptical about the sugar industry’s role in manipulating your consumption. All in all, I’m glad I read this book but I won’t be exhorting others to do so.
