The Way We Eat

Peter Singer, a bio-ethicist at Princeton University and Jim Mason, who grew up as a fifth generation farmer, have written this book
, an engaging tell-all about the origins of the food in your fridge.
Their voyage literally begins at the dinner table of three average American families with differing tastes and socio-economic backgrounds and continues as the authors set out to trace the provenance of the foods we eat, with stops along the way to check out the validity of labels such as “Certified Humane.”
One highlight of The Way We Eat, is that it concludes with five simple principles that consumers can use to make better food choices.
However, a warning is in order. After reading this book, you will never look at turkey in the same way (let alone want to eat it) and will understand why the terms “turkey” and “sexual politics” can be appropriately used in the same sentence.
