Title: Less of a polemic than I expected
Review: I was sure, when I picked up this book, that it would push me back toward those years in the 70s when we all seemed to think that vegetarianism was the logical answer just about everything that was wrong with the world. So I was surprised that Eric Schlosser wasn't really pushing that philosophy; he's not truly anti-hamburger, he's just in favor of healthy hamburger. Healthy for everyone: cowboys, consumers, corporations, and even the cows.One effect of those who read Fast Food Nation will probably be a severe lessening in how mindlessly they turn into McDonald's or Burger King when hunger hits on the Interstate. Instead, you just might find yourself looking for kosher and organic meats and packing your own lunches before heading off on a trip to Disneyland.A much-needed book.
