3 quotes from The Omnivore's Dilemma

  • "The way we eat represents our most profound engagement with the natural world. It is a choice, conscious or unconscious, about how we want to live."
  • "In eating, we make choices, and those choices define our relationship to the world around us and to each other."
  • "The industrial food chain is an elaborate and high-tech operation. It is not just food; it is corporate power and profit, subsumed into our diets without our awareness."

Author : Michael Pollan

Michael Pollan, one of America's leading food authors, was named one of Newsweek's Top 10 "New Thought Leaders," and TIME magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2010. Instead of sitting in an office studying books, he loves to venture into fields and kitchens around the world to learn about food culture and the social phenomena behind it. He's also a nature lover, who pinpoints a viable path for humans to get back to the basics in the industrial food chain.
