    I am currently reading this book and it is excellent and I love Michael Pollan... however if you are one who isn't thrilled by statistics I would suggest his book "The Botany of Desire." It was my personal favorite of his books and is more of a personal account of his experience with food and plants versus the economics and nutritional aspects of nature.

    Somewhat a rehash of The Omnivore's Dilemma, except this book has the word "percent" on nearly every page. The great storytelling is gone, and in its place is a fairly dry discussion of trends in nutritionism and why you should ignore most of them. Still interesting in places but overall a very fast skim if you've already read the Dilemma. The takeaway is: eat a wide variety of whole foods, preferably those you have grown &/or cooked yourself.
