Debbie D. (mmbay) reviewed What's for dinner? on 12/27/2008 + 19 more book reviews

I found the first third of this book fascinating. I had not known how much of our food system is based on corn, and was amazed at the description of the feed lots. The author has a sense of humor that comes through the well researched facts he presents. However by the middle to end of the book, the facts and details become overwhelming. If you are interested in food and the local food movement, you'll like this book. Otherwise, read "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver.
Unfortunately, by the end of this book my response to "Whats for dinner?" was "Who cares."
