I recently stumbled upon this interview that John Steward did with author Michael Pollen. I found it very interesting how he relates people's eating habits with lifestyle and how he talks about industry is the greatest factor in our food production with our health being a very small concern. I have not read the book he is discussing in the interview, I just think that he makes a very relevant point when speaking of how the bulk of our foods are produced.
Enjoy!

Isn't it amazing that all you need to do is either read his book or pay close attention to what he says in less than five minutes and realize that the food industry, a trillion dollar industry is producing foods that makes us sick and the pharmaceutical industry, another trillion dollar industry is happy to manage the sick. Easy for the insurance industry to stay ahead of the game by selecting whom they want to insure and making sure that the insurable population keeps paying more and more for premiums. When are Americans going to understand this and wake up?
