Moar Food Politics

I've just heard of a book called Against the Grain by Richard Manning. From what I've read about it, it sounds like a case for feeding cattle grass instead of grain to help fix the environmental destruction caused by certain forms of farming. I might (with my meager funds and book store gift certificate) buy this and Omnivore's Dilemma, then contrast their arguments. There's also the option of The Vegetarian Myth by Lierre Kieth, which sounds like it's along the same lines as Against the Grain.

Some day I'll get to posting more about delicious things and less about my conflicted thoughts on said delicious things.


Note: I couldn't find Against the Grain on the website for the book store where I wouldn't have to pay my own money, so I purchased The Vegetarian Myth and The Omnivore's Dilemma. They should be here in the next week, so I can start reviewing and analyzing with a little more background than I already have. In the mean time, I'll post a recipe or two and buy some batteries for my mediocre camera to post some food-porn.
