我們到底要吃什麼？

Michael Pollan在兩年前出版了廣受好評的The Omnivore's Dilemma（《到底要吃什麼？》），問了一個很重要的問題：「我們吃的到底是什麼？」，我相信一定有不少人接著問他道：「那我們到底要吃什麼？」，所以他又在今年初出版新書In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto來回答這個問題。和The Omnivore's Dilemma有趣的偵探推理方式不同的，In Defense of Food是相當平鋪直述，讀起來的樂趣太不如前者。不過，就實用價值而言，後者勝過前者。對於「我們到底要吃什麼？」這個問題，他的答案非常非常的簡單，相對許多營養學聖經等列舉出一堆該吃不該吃的東西，Michael Pollan僅說了一句：「Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.」，也就是「吃食物，別太多，素食為主。」。Michael Pollan很不屑那些所謂的營養學專家或書籍中強調該多吃何種東西，嚴禁吃什麼東西，還要為試圖為健康犧牲口福的方式。基本上，Michael Pollan主張，只要遵守那個「吃食物，別太多，素食為主。」的原則，你可以享用任何你想吃的美食。閱讀全文：http://skygene.blogspot.com/2008/07/in-defense-of-food.html

Great Ideas Made Easy and Lucid

A great book in that it offers some very innovative, or we may say revolutionary, ideas. The book is quite persuasive in its attempt to change our eating habits, at least for someone who would like to read such a book, I think. The only thing I find not so satisfying is the writing style. I read this book right after Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything" and there is just such a big contrast between these two in terms of the styles. The writing is a little bit dry and the reasoning is sometimes kind of foggy. Well, this is just what I think. Maybe I happened to fall asleep at some parts. Anyway, this is still a book worth reading!
