Description: From the author
of the national bestseller The Culture of Fear comes a rallying cry to abandon
food fads and myths for calmer and more pleasurable eating.
For many
Americans, eating is a religion. We worship at the temples of celebrity chefs.
We raise our children to believe that certain foods are good and others are
bad. We believe that if we eat the right foods, we will live longer, and if we
eat in the right places, we will raise our social status. Yet what we believe
to be true about food is, in fact, quite contradictory.
Offering part
exposé, part social com-mentary, sociologist Barry Glassner talks to chefs,
food chemists, nutritionists, and restaurant critics about the way we eat.
Helping us recognize the myths, half-truths, and guilt trips they promulgate,
The Gospel of Food liberates us for greater joy at the table.
