Pollan, Michael. (2009). Rules to Eat By. New York Times magazine.
Michael Pollan speaks about how today people decide what to eat by listening to nutrition experts and food pyramids. However, in the past people have always went by their culture. Nutritionists and food pyramids are the federal government's ideas, so how can people rely on this when the federal government is also the reason why food is the way it is. They can put any labels they want onto food and our society does not know any better but to believe what it says. People should start relying on their culture again, such as their family and friends.
