Pollan Reaction

I thought the Pollan lecture today was very informative, and entertaining. I enjoyed his lecture much better than his writing! I thought he was funny and well-spoken. A lot of what he said was very true. I work at a restaurant and our salads even though they are the healthiest thing on the menu, still aren't healthy at all. In fact all our food is very unhealthy and high in calories. Yet, just because we sell salads, or wraps and people perceive them as "healthy" people believe they are eating healthier when they order these foods. Yet, this is not the case at all and the control that the food industry has over government is disturbing as well!
