Summary

The full inside story of the technology paradigm shift transforming the food we eat and who is making it

Ultraprocessed and secretly produced foods are roaring back into vogue, cheered by consumers and investors because they are plant-based and help address societal issues. And as our food system leaps ahead to a sterilized lab of the future, we think we know more about our food than we ever did, but because so much is happening so rapidly, we actually know less. In Technically Food, investigative reporter Larissa Zimberoff pokes holes in the marketing mania behind today’s changing food landscape and clearly shows the trade-offs of replacing real food with technology-driven approximations with news-breaking revelations.

Very balanced view

Very balanced review and certainly highlights the complexities of our food systems and warns of the dangers from corporations taking control of our food and making it in highly processed factories !! Get rid of the farmers at your peril !!

Interesting list of issues

Good primer for people wanting to understand the challenges and issues with flare food technologies

However, it fails to quantify or rank the relative issues and their impact, nor does it acknowledge the inherent trade offs that exist.
