About this listen
An accessible and balanced account, Food Politics laid the groundwork for today's food revolution and changed the way we respond to food industry marketing practices. Now, a new introduction and concluding chapter bring us up to date on the key events in that movement. This pathbreaking, prize-winning book helps us understand more clearly than ever before what we eat and why.
This book is published by University of California Press.

Food - not just for eating....
I am now more involved with food and the idea of politics and food before I became a chef was not on my radar. I now see and understand the issues around food, sourcing, supply, pricing, safety, marketing etc and have to find ways to deal with them in my daily life.
The insights that Marion has are useful and real! Its an interesting and sometimes difficult read but it does highlight some of the issues we all need to think about and even make decisions on ourselves when it comes to food.
Well done!

very good book
Everyone who eats food should read this. Even if it is a few years old, everything still applies to this day.

Disappointing
Some interesting stories on lobbyism and politics. However it is filled with outdated references to the importance of sticking to the food pyramid, load up on carbohydrates, avoid fat, especially saturated fat and target lower total cholesterol/ldl.
I recommend you check out Nina Teicholz's Big Fat Surprise instead.

Outdated and dull
Largely irrelevant to British listeners, statistics mostly 50 to 30 years old. Biased too. Can’t believe my girlfriend told me to download this utter shit.
