The Omnivore's Dilemma





It's cliche to say that reading a book can transform how you view some part of your world because it seems as people say it all the time, however, it recently happened to me when I read the book "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan. I read it in anticipation of Pollan coming to speak to our school for an assembly a few weeks ago.

I have begun to think much more closely about the choices I make when eating and to understand that organic isn't everything that it is meant to be. Most importantly, I've learned about the concept of sustainable agriculture. The chapter in the book about grass was riveting reading.
