Title: highly readable research
Review: We all know that body weight is influenced by our diet, exercise choices, and culture -- what Fat Land shows us is that we must more look closely at the intersection of these factors, and add in a healthy dose of politics and economics. Greg Critser's well-researched and highly readable book walks us through the Butz years, as high fructose corn syrup and palm oil became a larger part of the American diet. Critser takes us into science, to illuminate how these products are processed (or not) by our bodies. There are discussions of the economics behind Supersize meals and the introduction of soda machines and fast food into our nation's schools, and the amount of calories these two additions to our culture have added to our daily diets. It had me reading out loud at the dinner table ("can you BELIEVE this?!") and then changing my children's eating habits (not to mention my own) without ever looking back. If dieting begins in the mind, then this should be your first step.
