The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals

An interesting topic, although I think it could have been broken into more than one book. At times I felt like I was reading Bill Bryson, as Michael Pollen can be very funny and self-deprecating. Other sections were meticulously researched, and could form their own book. However, it is worthwhile - and really a must-read for anyone interested in food and where it comes from. I do have to say though, I was a bit offended at his portrayal of vegetarians. Our decisions not to eat meat should not be taken as a cop-out, as Pollen seems to suggest!
