Michael Pollan Seeks Food Rules

In today's online edition of The New York Times Michael Pollan is reaching out to readers to ask for their food "rules" as part of a new project he is working on. You can contribute here.

Also, on a somewhat realted topic, I spent a chunk of my weekend reading The World Is Fat by Barry Popkin. While I appreciated that it had information from different countries and cultures than other similar books about food systems and the global obesity pandemic, I found it rather preachy and not particularly insightful. Michael Pollan's In Defense of Food was a much better read.
