Summary

I have had a great time reading Michael Pollan's book "The Omnivore's Dilemma". The book goes into depth about how the foods we eat today are not really food. The book is a good read and eye opening. Through out the book he try's to forage enough food to have a meal with a few other people who helped him forage. It's very interesting and shocking to learn how hard it is. Also, he sets a few rules as to how to eat real food in the real world. If you try to follow these rules it is extremely difficult, unless you know how to make it yourself. Here are the rules:

Avoid food products containing ingredients that are:

A) Unfamiliar
B) Unpronounceable
C) More than five in number
or that contain:
D) High-fructose corn syrup

I guarantee that if you try to eat following these simple rules, your regular food list will dwindle. Let me know what you think and if you plan on following these rules at least to a 80% - 20% rule, 80% of the time you follow the rules.
