The final in a series on food by Rebecca Gerendasy,
director of CookingUpAStory films, consider the views
discussed in Part Four of a dialogue and talk by
Michael Pollan about his latest book on real food and the logic of
it, as opposed to some modern scientific substitutes.
This dialogue concerns the feedback from the book,
and the various outcomes resulting from its
discussion and circulation. There is also some
author discussion on what his focus and intention was
in publishing this work.
“In Defense of Food” is valuable reading for anyone
interested in keeping vital foods “whole”. It’s linked
in the sidebar, on Amazon. This is an interesting topic,
as good nutrition concerns everyone, offering
some real food logic.
