I’ve given this talk in London, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam and now Bavaria where the kids are alright and bracing themselves for the onslaught of the American junk diet and its health consequences.

This month in history, my investigation of processed food hit the #1 NYTimes rankings for all nonfiction with these words: “In their hands, salt. sugar, and fat … are not nutrients as much as weapons — weapons they deploy to defeat competitors, certainly, but also to keep us coming back for more.”

Sorry, but this will always be Mt. Denali to me (skirting a storm off Windy Corner, 2021)

Steal this book: I was so excited when Salt Sugar Fat made the library listing as a bestseller. And it’s still free. Check it out!

‘‘Tis the season of diet hustlers who have the same script: “I was sick, found this miracle cure, which by divine grace I’m now called to sell to you, at a discount.”

Did I mention that Big Food’s global march has so overpowered local food cultures that even Russia published the 21st translation of my book Salt Sugar Fat?

Coke and Pepsi are ramping up their lobbying, my old paper the WSJ reports, using the tobacco argument that they’re just providing “choice.” But given how hard those companies work to get in our heads when we’re kids (see chapter 5 in Salt Sugar Fat) is free will really a thing?

Big Food in so many ways is more powerful than the gov agencies that supposedly regulate it on our behalf. My full conversation with Michael @smerconish @cnn this morning: www.cnn.com/2024/11/23/h...

Talking to @cnn @smerconish in a few minutes about Trump and Big Food from my kid’s college house in Ithaca where of course this is for breakfast.

Dyes in your cereal. Junk food in your head. Please join me this morning at 9:30 ET on @cnn with @smerconish to talk about what Trump called the “industrial food complex” and whether he, RFK Jr and Dr. Oz will be able to do anything about it. I’m a bit doubtful.
