The Omnivores Dilemma, by Michael Pollan. Was very similar in some concepts with Don't eat this book. Anyway I found that this book lead your through quite a mental dilema. Through the discovery of what were actually eating.
In the central portion of the book four different meals and where all the ingredients originated from. The worst part for me was the actual recognition of the industrial food system. Most people have an understanding or assumption that it is a "rather large farm." Mr. Pollan says "It's more like a series of factories that turn raw materials into food product. It's a giant food chain, that one supplies most of the food americans eat today." The real deal breaker for me was all the animal cruelty. The other section was based on "industrial organic food" this is food grownn own an enormous farm that could qualify as a factory. Throught out the book Mr.Pollan leads onto various concepts of such.
What I enjoyed about his book is that he actually explored around the topic and was able to show relevant evidence. He was able to really dive into this topic and use personal experience they all vary. He also really expreses his opinion. As well as not holding back on irregular unspeakable topics.
Honestly I don't know why I read these type of book's. Every single time I end up completely astonished. As well as gives me more reasoning on how to select what i put into my body. Overall this book was fantastic.
