How the Food Giants Hooked Us

Michael Moss

Discover the shocking secrets of what's really in your food in Salt Sugar Fat. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Moss takes an investigative look at the processed food industry, revealing how companies manipulate chemical structures to make their products irresistible. Moss sheds light on the tactics used by recognizable brands like Coca-Cola, Oreos, and Nestlé, and why even concerned executives can't produce truly healthy alternatives. You'll never look at your pantry the same way again.

@evaneugenescott @MLeeJohnson @HawkofNewYork Food preferences come largely from the food, not from the people. I have cravings for chocolate until I stay away from it long enough to realize it wasn't my free will making me eat it, just a chemically induced addiction. See Sugar, Fat, Salt book.      source

@novenator @andrewmarsh6 @williamorr2110 @EmmaKinery Fat alone doesn't cause obesity. Excess calories do. This is science. There's a fantastic book called "Salt Sugar Fat" that looks at what the food industry does to get consumers hooked.      source
