"In the more than four decades that I have been reading and writing
about the findings of nutritional science, I have come across
nothing more intelligent, sensible and simple to follow than the 64
principles outlined in a slender, easy-to-digest new book called
Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual, by Michael Pollan." —Jane Brody, The
New York Times
"The most sensible diet plan ever? We think it's the one that
Michael Pollan outlined a few years ago: “Eat food. Not too much.
Mostly plants.” So we're happy that in his little new book, Food
Rules, Pollan offers more common-sense rules for eating: 64 of
them, in fact, all thought-provoking and some laugh-out-loud
funny." —The Houston Chronicle
"It doesn't get much easier than this. Each page has a simple rule,
sometimes with a short explanation, sometimes without, that
promotes Pollan's back-to-the-basics-of-food (and-food-enjoyment)
philosophy." —The Los Angeles Times
"A useful and funny purse-sized manual that could easily replace
all the diet books on your bookshelf." —Tara Parker-Pope, The
New York Times
