                      Articles

                      Of course, there are thousands of articles written about diet. I believe these articles do shed an interesting light on American diet and culture.

                      Books

                      The American food system is complex. The science of diet, if you can call it that, has become complex. To understand the aforementioned topics, I have found these books to be of tremendous value. 

                      I have read many other books on the subject, however, these stand out above the rest.
