Introduction to the U.S. Food System
Food deserts anyone? A great introduction in how our population is impacted by policies around food production. Sections include topics such as Health Equity, Ecological threats to our food supplies, sustainability, eating local, and food insecurity. What role do politics play in our US food system? Why are lobbyists involved in farming and what does that have to do with beef prices? What should the role be for food inspection and why do we continuously have safety issues from outbreaks linked back to food? Is poor diet a personal choice or a societal factor? The first edition of this book was published on October 20, 2014.
