Michael Pollan: In Defense of Food 3
By Cooking Up a StoryThere’s more to eating than just its effect upon our health. Pleasure, a sense of community, our sense of connection with nature, these are all highly important aspects of eating that may get overlooked. In this segment with Deborah Kane of Ecotrust, Michael Pollan discusses our over-reliance upon science to guide us in our food decisions, in this case, the science of nutrition, and our gross under-appreciation of culture as the more trustworthy guide for choosing the right foods to eat.
