Self-Help
A savvy and practical guide to organic eating for urban
dwellers. In the past few years, organic food has moved out of the
patchouli-scented aisles of hippie food co-ops and into
three-quarters of conventional grocery stores. Concurrent
with this growth has been increased consumer awareness of
the social and health-related issues around organic eating,
independent farming, and food production. Combining a straight-to-the-point exposé about organic
foods (organic doesn't mean fresh, natural, or
independently produced) and the how-to's of creating an
affordable, easy-touse organic kitchen, Grub brings
organics home to urban dwellers. It gives the reader
compelling arguments for buying organic food, revealing the
pesticide industry's influence on government regulation and
the extent of its pollution in our waterways and bodies. With an inviting recipe section, Grub also offers the
millions of people who buy organics fresh ideas and easy
ways to cook with them. Grub's recipes, twenty-four meals
oriented around the seasons, appeal to eighteen- to forty-
year-olds who are looking for fun and simple meals. In
addition, the book features resource lists (including music
playlists to cook by), unusual and illuminating graphics,
and every variety of do-it yourself tip sheets, charts, and
checklists.
