Food Rules by Michael Pollan
2.0
Only the last rule made sense. The rest tried hard to be interesting or funny, but were contradicting, not science-based, and just factually wrong. I didn't enjoy it.
Such a big load of crap. How can you demonize food that much?
Food that arrives through the window of your car isn't food? Aha, what is it, then? It's edible, and it can keep your body fueled.
And other claims, too, just sound stupid. Why, please?
This guy is contradicting himself in a few claims. One rule says we should not make any exceptions, and the other clearly says that obviously, not everything is affected by this rule, and we should be open-minded.
I just don't like the whole premise of the book. And I am clearly emotionally invested and felt attacked. I just wish people would stop hating on food and people in larger bodies so much. This approach has not solved anything.
