Summary:
"In just two generations, the
world
has
undergone a massive shift from traditional, limited diets to more globalized ways of eating-- from bubble tea to quinoa, Soylent to meal kits. Paradoxically,
our
diets are getting healthier and less healthy at the same time. For some, there
has
never been a happier
food
era than today: a time of unusual herbs, farmers' markets, and internet recipe swaps. Yet modern
food
also kills-- diabetes and heart disease are on the rise everywhere on earth. This is a book about the good, the terrible, and the avocado toast. A riveting exploration of the hidden forces behind what we eat, "The way we eat now" explains
how
this
food
revolution
has
transformed
our
bodies
,
our
social
lives
, and the
world
we live in."--From publisher.
