The Politics of Your Plate: A Conversation with Dr. Marion Nestle on What to Eat Now
For decades, nutritionist and food policy expert Marion Nestle has exposed the political and economic factors that influence our dietary choices and has been a leading voice in shifting the conversation from individual responsibility to corporate influence. Join the conversation as she talks about her groundbreaking new book, What to Eat Now: The Indispensable Guide to Good Food, How to Find It, and Why It Matters. She revisits the modern supermarket, offering an aisle-by-aisle guide to navigating today’s complex food landscape, noting how much has changed since What to Eat was published in 2006, as a result of the powerful political and economic forces that shape our plates.
