an important must read if you care about the future

you vote with your fork and your food choices at least 3 times a day. this book will help you make the right decisions. if enough of us eat responsibly, we can take back our world from the likes of monsanto before it's too late

Must read

This book is a must read for any one who is concerned about their own health or their family's. It explains in depth what is happening to our food supply, and the information provided is quite alarming. This book will change the way you look at both "fresh" and packaged food in this country. I was interested in buying natural and organic foods prior to reading this, but I think now I will be a bit more religious with my organic purchases. I urge everyone to read this book, become informed, and then decide if you really want to continue purchasing cheaper, unhealthy foods.

COMPELLING READING

A must read for anyone concerned about their health and the quality of the food we eat. Industrial food production is changing the COMPOSITION of the food we eat. Real food requires our knoledge and effort.

Buy it for Chapter 3 alone.

Chapter 3, which includes a thorough, although never complete (according to the author) list of what he calls a "Witches Brew" of "additives, pollutants, adulterants and poisons...that is becoming our food." VERY easy to read and not hopeless---but there isn't an easy answer, either. Pawlick does hold US responsible for being the change we want to see in our food and in our world.

Scary but important

Depressing and scary to read, but important all the same. This book sets out what I have been suspecting for a while now, with a lot I didn't even have a clue about. Something everyone should read, and then go and plant your garden!
