Pollan’s food manifesto: Just ‘eat’
“Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.”
Michael Pollan chose this mantra to begin his new book, “In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto.” For good measure, he slapped it on the cover, too.
It seems simple enough at first reading — isn’t everything we eat food? But Pollan distinguishes between yogurt and Go-gurt, between foods our grandmothers would recognize and the “foodlike products” now found on grocery store shelves.
