"Food Rules" with Michael Pollan

Just found this article in the New York Times this morning.  It's a delightful interview with Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore's Dilemma and In Defense of Food, both of which I have mentioned in previous posts.  His new book, Food Rules, comes out soon.  I'm very much looking forward to reading it, and from what it looks like, you should be, too.  It's apparantly a humurous and easy to approach distillation of his most salient arguments about food, food culture, and eating.  In particular, he provides 64 rules for how to eat so you don't go about screwing yourself over by blindly consuming processed foods and shoveling it into your face without so much as a teensy amount of enjoyment.  Rules like, “It’s not food if it’s served through the window of your car" and "It's not food if it's called by the same name in every language" (think Coca Cola, Big Mac, and Skittles) are both cute and helpful.

So, if you've never read anything of his before, this might be the one for you.  But... still... read the other books, too.  Just sayin'.
