Nestle deftly threads many of the nutritional issues facing the country."

"This 'little book' has big messages and is well worth reading even by those already active in food and nutrition advocacy. It achieves its goal of being accessible to diverse readers. Overall, it integrates topics that are discussed separately in Nestle's previous books and that are often considered separately in public health and larger societal discourse but must ultimately be addressed by coordinated solutions."-- "American Journal of Public Health"

"There is no one who knows more about food politics and policy and its effects on health in this country than Marion Nestle. . . . Years of research on various aspects of our systems have made her the go-to, for many of us, when we can't make sense of something that should be very straightforward but is anything but. . . . Her perspective is expansive and her opinions direct."-- "KCRW/Good Food"
"Informative, pragmatic responses about what, why, and how we eat."-- "Kirkus Reviews"
