please read this book

For the longest time, I resisted buying and reading this book by Michael Pollan. For some reason, I was under the impression that the book wanted me to stop eating meat or that it was authored by some granolier-than-thou Morgan Spurlock-type a-hole. I was so wrong. If anything, this book just wants me to be a little more conscious of whence my food comes. I guess I can take on that responsiblity; especially if I plan to continue eating animals, which I do. The real reason for this post is that I want people who know me to read the book so I can have someone to talk about it with -- someone who won't think I've gone all "I grow and puree my own organic baby food" on them (thank you, Megan).
