Over just two generations, traditional and limited diets have given way to globalised food systems offering unprecedented variety-yet paradoxically leaving many people less healthy than before. Wilson explores the rise of ultra-processed foods, the psychology of appetite, the influence of supermarkets and corporations, and the cultural forces reshaping our relationship with meals. Drawing on meticulous research, interviews and storytelling, she charts how convenience, marketing and economics have reshaped kitchens and dinner tables worldwide. Rather than simply diagnosing the problem, Wilson also looks for reasons to be hopeful, highlighting communities and individuals finding new, more sustainable and pleasurable ways to eat. The book moves fluidly between personal anecdote, scientific evidence and social history, making complex food politics accessible without ever feeling dry or preachy. Whether discussing school dinners, food deserts, the rise of veganism or the psychology of snacking, Wilson brings clarity and nuance to a subject that touches every reader. This paperback edition is brand new and perfect as a standalone read, a thoughtful gift, or an addition to any food-lover's shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinner of the Fortnum \u0026amp; Mason Food Book of the Year 2020.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessible, research-backed writing from a multi-award-winning food historian.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores nutrition, food industry practices and the psychology of eating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for book clubs, classroom discussion or personal reading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for anyone interested in food, health or sustainability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBee Wilson is an acclaimed British food writer and historian, and the author of five previous books including Consider the Fork, First Bite and Swindled.
