Food Matters, by Mark Bittman. Simon & Schuster, 2009.
Mark Bittman mixes statistics on the consequences of eating meat with diet advice, a rant on big food, and 75 recipes. His advice: eat less meat and more plants, fewer refined carbohydrates, and no junk food; nothing particularly new there. I tried a half dozen of the recipes, all were OK, but none knocked my socks off. The “Almost No-Work Whole Grain Bread” was probably the best; it made a dense loaf with no kneading required, by rising for 24 hours.
