About this Event
For decades, nutritionist and food policy expert Marion Nestle has exposed the political and economic factors that influence our dietary choices, and has been a leading voice in shifting the conversation from individual responsibility to corporate influence. Join the conversation as she talks about her groundbreaking new book, . She revisits the modern supermarket, offering an aisle-by-aisle guide to navigating today's complex food landscape, noting how much has changed since What to Eat was published in 2006, as a result of the powerful political and economic forces that shape our plates.
Nestle will share her journey from molecular biologist to public health advocate and provide practical, common-sense advice for eating well in a world of information overload. This conversation will go beyond simple dietary advice, delving into the powerful political and economic forces that shape our plates.
This event is co-hosted by the Culinary Historians of New York and NYU Special Collections. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the program will begin at 6:30.
