Cincinnati Event Tip!
Food. There's plenty of it around, and we all love to eat it. So why should anyone need to defend it? Because most of what we're consuming today is not food, and how we're consuming it -- in the car, in front of the TV, and increasingly alone -- is not really eating. Instead of food, we're consuming "edible foodlike substances" -- no longer the products of nature but of food science.(Pollan, http://www.michaelpollan.com/indefense.php)
Pollan recently appeared in the Documentary Food Inc. & is well known for writing In Defense of Food & The Omnivores Dilemma (in 06' named one of the ten best books of the year by the New York Times & Washington Post)
