The Omnivore's Dilemma pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

What should we have for dinner? For omnivore's like ourselves, this simple question has always posed a dilemma: When you can eat just about anything nature (or the supermarket) has to offer, deciding what you should eat will inevitably stir anxiety, especially when some of the foods on offer might shorten your life. Today, buffeted by one food fad after another, America is suffering from what can only be described as a national eating disorder. The omnivore's dilemma has returned with a vengeance, as the cornucopia of the modern American supermarket and fast-food outlet confronts us with a bewildering and treacherous food landscape. What's at stake in our eating choices is not only our own and our children's health, but the health of the environment that sustains life on earth.

The Omnivore's Dilemma is a groundbreaking book in which one of America's most fascinating, original, and elegant writers turns his own omnivorous mind to the seemingly straightforward question of what we should have for dinner. The question has confronted us since man discovered fire, but, according to Michael Pollan, the bestselling author of The Botany of Desire, how we answer it today, ath the dawn of the twenty-first century, may well determine our very survival as a species. Should we eat a fast-food hamburger? Something organic> Or perhaps something we hunt, gather or grow ourselves?

To find out, Pollan follows each of the food chains that sustain us--industrial food, organic or alternative food, and food we forage ourselves--from the source to a final meal, and in the process develops a definitive account of the American way of eating. His absorbing narrative takes us from Iowa cornfields to food laboratories, from feedlots and fast-food restaurants to organic farms and hunting grounds, always emphasizing our dynamic coevolutionary relationship with the handful of plant and animal species we depend on. Each time Pollan sits down to a meal, he deploys his unique blend of personal and investigative journalism to trace the origins of everything consumed, revealing what we unwittingly ingest and explaining how our taste for particular foods and flavors reflects our evolutionary inheritance.

The surprising answers Pollan offers to the simple question posed by this book have profound political, economic, psychological, and even mortal implications for all of us. Ultimately, this is a book as much about visionary solutions as it is about problems, and Pollan contends that, when it comes to food, doing the right thing often turns out to be the tastiest thing an eater can do. Beautifully written and thrillingly argued, The Omnivore's Dilemma promises to change the way we think about the politics and pleasure of eating. For anyone who reads it, dinner will never again look, or taste, quite the same.

我的基本假設是,人類和地球上其他生物一樣,都是食物鏈中的一環,人類在食物鏈中的地位,或多或少決定瞭人類是什麼樣的生物。人類雜食的特性,塑造齣我們的心靈與身體本質(人類的牙齒和下顎能夠處理各種食物,既能撕裂肉類也可磨碎種子,這就是雜食造成的身體特性)。我們與...

學到瞭一個短語,“American Paradox”,大意是把美國人的飲食方式和法國人相比,相襯之下,法國人對於吃的食品熱量,食品甜度以及脂肪的多少並不那麼顧忌,卻依然可以保持好身材;而在美國,卻是由很多人過度關心自己每天的熱量食物,以低碳水和低脂肪飲食為宗旨,過一種可以...

有點微妙還算有趣。本來以為是從食品角度講人類進化史,實際上更接近作者個人的隨筆。從工業化農場的見聞講玉米怎樣畸形地主導瞭美國的食品工業、來自食品工業看似廉價的食物實際對生態環境、納稅人、消費者健康有著怎樣的隱性代價;再講有機農場如何以草為基礎建立小型的生態圈來同時生産各種綠色食品,甚至講到動手殺雞的體驗;最後記敘作者親身獵野豬采蘑菇的過程,談食肉的倫理和人與自然生態的共生關係。

其實食品製造工業化這一醜陋的流程是很難被逆轉瞭. 我們可以做的是作為消費者努力不讓我們的食品消費過程工業化. we eat industrially—which is to say, when we eat without a thought to what we're doing. 簡單來說, 我們需要清楚的是: What it is we're eating. Where it came from. How it found its way to our table. And what, in a true accounting, it really cost. 越接近食品製造工業化的真相, 對工業化食品的逃離者就會越多, 這還是一個希望所在.

I'm truly traumatized. I can never look at my meat the same way again and will try to eat the least possible. Now I consciously think about what goes into my mouth more than ever before. A book that certainly changed the way how I think and eat food
