![]() ![]() They even give you the questions to ask!Īlso, I enjoyed that the authors advocated cooking. You should meet the farmers who raise the food and ask them a few questions. They instead said that you should look for local, fresh produce and meats. I also like that they didn't push being vegetarian or vegan. At the end of most chapters it had a little section called "what can you do?" and it had bulleted suggestions if you wanted to get more involved or change your actions. The best part of this book was that it had real practical solutions to problems. And while that is true (and scary) this book really surprised me with its diverseness. How a few companies are running everything. I thought this book would be all about the big bad food lobby. ![]()
