The Omnivore's Dilemma (by Michael Pollan)

"The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan explores the complex choices we face as eaters in a modern food system. It highlights the challenges of knowing where our food comes from, the ethical implications of our choices, and the environmental impact of different food sources. Pollan traces four meals back to their origins—industrial, organic, sustainable, and foraged—showcasing the consequences of each method. Ultimately, he encourages readers to consider not just what to eat, but the broader implications of their food decisions on health, sustainability, and ethics in an increasingly globalized world.
