Disclaimer: I received a review copy of this book free of charge in return for writing a review.
For a first novel, this book is extremely well-written with very well-defined characters. Even though, as the author points out in his final comments, this is complete fiction, it still describes the mind-set of corporate upper echelon individuals in a very incisive way. He describes the behavior and attitudes of the higher-ups in the company where his protagonist is employed with absolutely accurac...more

Fat Profits is a well written book on corporate greed and the extents that big business will go to increase their coffers. I lost count somewhere along the read with how many people were killed off, paid off, and injured just to get one "food" product line put out to temp people who believe the advertising. I know this book is written as fiction; but it is so true!

This book is about a young snack food executive who learns his corporation's new miracle love-calorie snack food additive isn't necessarily as safe as it's supposed to be. It leads to him not being as safe as he thought he was.
This was a page turner for me because the book was well written and it seemed like something that actually happens in the industry. It deals with the fact that people see advertisement and are tempted to go out and buy th...more

A fast read, an unlikely thriller but still a good read. It shows how corrupt big corporations can be and I like that it was about a food corporation because I think it is a hot topic nowadays!
This story was an exciting thrill-ride from the first page. A work of fiction, but it seems as if this story could be real based on manufactured food. This was a unique thriller about the food industry and even though I won this as a freebie would recommend it and my wife is next to read!

I loved the message the author incorporates into his all-too-real thriller: industrialized/manufactured 'food' equals big profits so beware, beware, beware! This was the perfect novel to read after finishing Pollen's 'In Defense of Food'. I now feel well-educated and my grocery shopping has done a complete 180 to say the least!
I was hooked. Although, the story line seemed a tad farfetched, I nonetheless became absorbed and could not put the book down. At times I thought "really? and no one else is suspicious" and yet I still wanted to know the outcome. It was good entertainment.
