I’ve spent years obsessing over why we eat what we eat. And along the way, I’ve discovered something shocking: Every bite you take is screaming your life story to the world.

The Mind-Blowing Reality of Modern Food Choices

Remember the good old days when buying rice was simple? Those days are dead.

And that’s exactly what the food industry wants.
