You ever read something and you just know the person writing it is some smug, older white guy, who is reviewing what he wrote with a satisfied cheshire grin? "Yes, yes. I am very smart."

Too opaque for the general layman. Too much of an aggressive hit piece from a guy expressing his victim complex for anyone within the industry. Too triggering with questionable biomarker references for anyone struggling to learn more about nutrition to help restrictive eating disorders. Who is this book even for, aside from this guy's ego?

It's capitalism. Just say it's capitalism. It's not individuals within the system that want you silenced, Mr. Lustig. Or some grand conspiracy. Capitalism and the commoditificaton of food is the problem.

If you want nutrition advice, read Pollan. If you want politics and the why, read Marion Nestle and Michael Moss. Leave this one on the shelf.
