    The book is definitely eye-opening. I found myself thinking "wow, really?" on almost every page. I am worried, however, that the author is presenting a biased account...and that there really isn't anyone or anything presenting an alternative argument. If he juxtaposed the negative with the industries reasoning, it may be a more credible work. I kind of get the feeling "DISNEY IS EVIL!" and "MCY D'S JUST WANTS YOUR MONEY!" Which may be true...but there has to be some genuine concern about the consumer, somewhere.

    What do you get when you cross big business with our food supply? You're eating habits will never be the same.

    I almost picked up this book. But I've already heard about the author's arguments from other readings and hence, I have not yet read it.

    I wonder if I should.

    This book is easy to read, and I highly recommend it to all people who eat out (anywhere, not just at "fast food" places). It was eye-opening for me, and I'm a lot pickier eater (for the better) now when I go out to restaurants.

    This is one of those important books that everyone should read. Whenever I tell people this, they tell me why they don't really want to read it and I can understand where they are comming from; I too had preconceptions about it. However, it's not at all what I thought it was. It's a good honest look at an industry as a whole and the dangers that the industry poses. It's not preachy at all, but it is enlightening.
