"Don't Buy Any Food You've Ever Seen Advertised"- Michael Pollan Michael Pollan is one of the nation’s leading writers and thinkers in this country on the issue of food. He is author of several books about food, including The Botany of Desire, The Omnivore’s Dilemma and his latest, In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto. In light of what he calls the processed food industry’s co-option of “sustainability” and its vast spending on marketing, Pollan advises to be wary of any food that’s advertised. Amy Goodman, independent jounalist from Democracy Now!, interviews Pollan about the intimate connections food has with "energy, healthcare, climate change, agriculture, and global outbreaks such as the swine flu." |
