DESC: It turns out that a trip to the vegetable market is not only good for you--it's good for the rest of us, too. Champion chef Mark Bittman (HOW TO COOK EVERYTHING) examines the hidden ways that the food we eat impacts the economy and ecology of the planet. By examining the industrial ways foods are processed and preserved, as well as how they are sold and marketed, Bittman clearly demonstrates that a diet emphasizing organic vegetables and grains vastly improves both your health and that of the entire planet. The second half of the book provides more than 75 recipes and a slew of helpful tips to make your diet "greener" and more delicious.
