Bittman Aligns with Michael Pollen

This video of a lecture by Mark Bittman, food columnist for the NYT and TV food guy on PBS, makes most of the key points made by Pollen in his book In Defense of Food. Watch it and read the very short and prescriptive book. I like to think it's changing the way we eat. I hope so, but 60 years of mostly bad habits are hard to break. The politics of this is that we are in the grips of agribusiness, to the detriment of our health and environment.
