The End of Food

I'm currently slogging through Paul Roberts' book, The End of Food. It's actually very interesting, but I haven't had much spare time (if you can imagine that), and the book is dense with facts and figures. So, instead of recommending his book to you right off the bat (although I do recommend his book to you!), I invite you to spend a few minutes reading one of his op-ed pieces, this one from the LA Times. It is titled, "Your Friend, the Kitchen," and it is right up The Reverent Eater's food reverence alley. Basically, he says, "Cook, people!"
