Though it was downright disgusting at times the author uses images to highlight our obese and wasteful nature. It may take a bit of getting into and is at times offensive--but I would definitely recommend this book to others. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/267619?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
