Food Rules: An Eater's Manual by Michael Pollan
4.0

Fantastic. Pollan’s entire book can be summed up with the title of each part:
I. Eat food
II. Mostly plants
III. Not too much

This is a quick guide for shopping, cooking, and eating. He has written other books that delve into the agro-industrial complex: this is not that book. This is a compendium of excellent advice taken from different cultures, different folklores, different scientific investigations, all held succinctly together by common sense.
