Did you know that a soda is made up almost completely of corn, or that some of the organic brands we buy are actually subsidiaries of large corporations? Michael Pollan examines these and many other food facts in this investigative look at the way our food is grown, raised, and processed. He takes the reader through four types of meals, uncovering the hidden costs of continuing to eat for convenience and challenges you to consider where your food comes from before taking a bite. Grades 6 & up.
