Book Reviews of In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto

Book Review: Food You Will Love
Summary: 5 Stars

I just read a number of reviews and want to write something a little different than what has been expressed.

If this diet is new to you and you are afraid you won't like it, relax. A major change in diet takes time getting used to,but the foods Michael Pollan recommends we eat are delicious.

At one time, I ate processed food, much of it with a high fat content, too much salt and so on. For years now, I have eaten what Pollan suggests. I love the food I eat and now find fatty, processed foods to be inedible.

My tastes have changed. This winter I have been experimenting with new vegetables and ingredients. Yum! Load me up on the simple but delicious flavors of real food!
