About this audiobook

One of The Atlantic's Best Food Books of 2014
Fifty ways to be an enlightened carnivore, while taking better care of our planet and ourselves, from the founder of Slow Food USA.

We have evolved as meat eaters, proclaims Patrick Martins, and it's futile to deny it. But, given the destructive forces of the fast-food industry and factory farming, we need to make smart, informed choices about the food we eat and where it comes from. In 50 short chapters, Martins cuts through organize zealotry and the misleading jargon of food labeling to outline realistic steps everyone can take to be part of the sustainable-food movement. With wit, and insight, and no small amount of provocation, THE CARNIVORE'S MANIFESTO is both a revolutionary call to arms and a rollicking good read that will inspire, engage, and challenge anyone interested in the way we eat today.

    Shallow read. Doesn't seriously engage with the main issues of meat consumption (no mention of the environmental impact meat farming has; no real engagement with the fact that there is no way to ethically feed the world meat without either destroying the environment or treating animals exceptionally badly; no mention of the fact that, while meat consumption was essential to human development a few hundred thousand years ago, it now plays no significant role in human health). Entire argument rests on unreasonable expectations: the millions of poor Americans who cannot, even if they could find one, afford a $140 turkey. The millions who have no access to healthy food or the education to know what healthy food is.
