Salt Lake City, UT – In his groundbreaking book The Omnivore's Dilemma, the writer Michael Pollan began an important conversation about food. His latest book continues his critique of the food industry, but this time he also takes on nutritional science, which he says has created nothing but anxiety and confusion about even the most basic question of food and health. Michael Pollan was in Utah earlier this year, and he joined us to explain why Americans need a whole new way to think about eating. (Rebroadcast)
