eating_animalsjust started this book a few days ago and have a long ways to go to finish it, so nothing i will say in this post is in the same neighborhood as "final decision/ultimate takeaway". foer is arguably my favorite fiction writer (see everything is illuminated and extremely loud and incredibly close), but this is the first he's ventured into non-fiction (that i know of). it's more of a memoir. a food memoir. and it has to do with eating meat. i don't know where this book will take me, i do know he doesn't want everyone to become a vegan. he does want people to think about the food they eat, where it comes from, and to demand a change to the factory farming of animals that we enable in this country. i can say that it has made amy and i think about where we buy our food. more can be found here and more to come later.
