Argues that the twentieth-century food revolution was fuelled by a powerful conviction that Americans had a moral obligation to use self-discipline and reason, rather than taste and tradition, in choosing what to eat. Helen Zoe Veit weaves together cultural history and the history of science to bring readers into the strange and complex world of the American Progressive Era.
