The Way We Eat Now by Bee Wilson

5.0

Loved this! This book offers a comprehensive look at the history of food and our eating habits. The tone is appropriate and non-judgmental throughout — something I was concerned about going into it. 

The author provides a sociological assessment of various food-related issues, such as access to food, time poverty, gender, and eating disorders. There is a great balance between personal experience and research, with many different cultures and lifestyles represented. This type of book is enjoyable in audiobook form, as it's almost like a podcast. I find myself thinking about some of the information I learnt from here on a regular basis, and would love to have my own copy of it at some point.
