Michael Pollan Quotes
Eating Is An Agricultural Act,' As Wendell Berry Famously Said. It Is Also An Ecological Act, And A Political Act, Too. Though Much Has Been Done To Obscure This Simple Fact, How And What We Eat Determines To A Great Extent The Use We Make Of The World - And What Is To Become Of It. To Eat With A Fuller Consciousness Of All That Is At Stake Might Sound Like A Burden, But In Practice Few Things In Life Can Afford Quite As Much Satisfaction. By Comparison, The Pleasures Of Eating Industrially, Which Is To Say Eating In Ignorance, Are Fleeting. Many People Today Seem Erfectly Content Eating At The End Of An Industrial Food Chain, Without A Thought In The World; This Book Is Probably Not For Them.
