Resumen del Editor
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.

Historia
If a piece of individually wrapped cheese retains its shape, color, and texture for years, what does it say about the food we eat and feed our children? Former New York Times reporter and mother Melanie Warner decided to explore that question when she observed the phenomenon of the indestructible cheese. She began an investigative journey that takes her to research labs, food science departments, and factories around the country. What she discovered provides a rare, eye-opening - and sometimes disturbing - account of what we're really eating.

Food is one of life's great joys. So why has eating become such a source of anxiety and confusion? Bee Wilson shows that in two generations the world has undergone a massive shift from traditional, limited diets to more globalized ways of eating, from bubble tea to quinoa, from Soylent to meal kits. Paradoxically, our diets are getting healthier and less healthy at the same time. For some, there has never been a happier food era than today: a time of unusual herbs, farmers' markets, and internet recipe swaps.

Historia
There's so much confusion about what to eat. Are you jumping from diet to diet and nothing seems to work? Are you sick of seeing contradictory health advice from experts? Just like the tobacco industry lied to us about the dangers of cigarettes, the same untruths, cover-ups, and deceptive practices are occurring in the food industry. Vani Hari, a.k.a. The Food Babe, blows the lid off the lies we've been fed about the food we eat - lies about its nutrient value, effects on our health, label information, and even the very science we base our food choices on.

But behind it all, there is an even more fundamental driver: Food. In Animal, Vegetable, Junk, trusted food authority Mark Bittman offers a panoramic view of how the frenzy for food has driven human history to some of its most catastrophic moments.

Historia
One of the great science and health revelations of our time is the danger posed by meat-eating. Every day, it seems, we are warned about the harm producing and consuming meat can do to the environment and our bodies. Many of us have tried to limit how much meat we consume, and many of us have tried to give it up altogether. But it is not easy to resist the smoky, cured, barbecued, and fried delights that tempt us.

Food writer Jonathan Kauffman journeys back more than half a century - to the 1960s and 1970s - to tell the story of how a coterie of unusual men and women embraced an alternative lifestyle that would ultimately change how modern Americans eat. Impeccably researched, Hippie Food chronicles how the longhairs, revolutionaries, and back-to-the-landers rejected the square establishment of President Richard Nixon's America and turned to a more idealistic and wholesome communal way of life and food.

Science is beginning to understand that our thinking has a deep and complicated relationship with our eating. Our thoughts before, during, and after eating profoundly impact our food choices, our digestive health, our brain health, and more. Yet most of us give very little thought to our food beyond taste and basic nutritional content.

In January of 2012, Megan Kimble was a 26-year-old living in a small apartment without even a garden plot to her name. But she cared about where food came from, how it was made, and what it did to her body: so she decided to go an entire year without eating processed foods. Unprocessed is the narrative of Megan's extraordinary year, in which she milled wheat, extracted salt from the sea, milked a goat, slaughtered a sheep, and more - all while earning an income that fell well below the federal poverty line.

Historia
Few consumers are aware of the economic forces behind the production of meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. Yet omnivore and herbivore alike, the forces of meatonomics affect us in many ways. Most importantly, we've lost the ability to decide for ourselves what - and how much - to eat. Those decisions are made for us by animal food producers who control our buying choices with artificially-low prices, misleading messaging, and heavy control over legislation and regulation.

Many people use protein for weight control while others believe it gives them more energy. Now, weight loss expert Dr. Garth Davis asks, "Is all this protein making us healthier?" The answer, he emphatically argues, is no.

Americans spend billions of dollars on gluten-free diets in an effort to protect their health. But what if we’ve been missing the root of the problem? In The Plant Paradox, renowned cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry reveals that gluten is just one variety of a common, and highly toxic, plant-based protein called lectin.

Advice about food can be confusing. There's usually only one thing experts can agree on: some ingredients - often the most enjoyable ones - are bad for you, full stop. But as Aaron Carroll explains, these oversimplifications are both wrong and dangerous: if we stop consuming some of our most demonized ingredients altogether, it may actually hurt us.

Its a great introduction into the new food industry
Great introduction to the industry. As a person who is following the developments in the industry, I didn’t get much of the new knowledge. But I thinks it’s good for newbies.

Information dense, fascinating look at modern food tech
Larissa Zimberoff takes a compelling look at all the different new food technologies that have arisen in the last decade - with many (like algae & mushrooms) still being actively developed right now. Zimberoff does a good job balancing the promise of these new high tech foods with her critique of food tech in general. Would highly recommend this audio book wanting to better understand food innovations.

Bad science and nutrition advice
As a book about the food industry it is fine or at least I don’t see the errors in this part of the book but as a nutrition or food science book it is pretty bad. There is lots of talk about “chemicals”, “bad food”, “clean ingredients”, and “processed foods” in ways that are at best slightly biased by current attitudes about food and diets and worst is just absolutely incorrect (incorrectly describing pH of foods and swapping the meaning of macro and micronutrients). I’m pretty interested in the food manufacturing industry as a food scientist who works in this field but I just can’t get past the absurd biases and errors to hear the story about Silicon Valley Food start ups. The writing is engaging but often veers into language that has no place in journalistic writing (lots of moralizing and extreme over-generalizing).

Author repeatedly very wrong about nutrition.
Investigation and reporting is good, on a very important topic.
The author's presumptions of what's unhealthy reflect all the bad science of the 20th century's misguided "heart health" recommendations. The patterns in her incorrectness reveal some familiar wishful thinking.
One thing in particular that bothered me is how the author credited "a plant based" diet to reverse type 2 diabetes, when the important factor is which carbs you consume and how. It's well established, type 2 diabetes is what happens when you literally saturate your body with glucose (ie your insulin response is insufficient to move glucose out of the blood), and operate that way over time, building up an insulin resistance.
Yet somehow she claims animal products, low in sugars, have something to do with the disease caused by your body perpetually drowning itself in glucose. No clue.
Author makes equally bogus claims about the relative health of different types of fats and oils. Her assertions are consistent with what industrial food oil interests promoted for a century, and which have been thoroughly debunked.
Sell as: "Type 1 diabetic doesn't understand insulin response, fats, proteins; Writes analysis of food tech and healthy eating based on common sense from our unhealthiest century".
"Not too harmful, for a fast food nation" is the best I can say.

Caution! Anti-populace slant!
The nuanced details are fabulous. Be wary, however, for this author is of the mind that our population is too big, that we will outgrow our ability to feed ourselves.
The details of the analog foods industry is useful, and very interesting. She tells many details of different aspects of the bioengineering of food-like products. It's terrifyingly evil, which is brushed over by the author. There is an acknowledgement that current farming practices are not healthy or sustainable, but, then the author goes too far afield to assign blame. The answer is not a burgeoning population, and the problem is not that we are all facing death by metabolic syndrome while in Africa whole countries are starving to death.
There is no discussion of historical food distribution methods, but we are brought back to the Great War, the Depression, and WWII. This is used to bolster the acceptable used of fake food. The author, as a Juvenile diabetic, never discusses the difference of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, and the difference required in treatment. A low carbohydrate, zero sugar diet will treat, possibly reverse Type 2 diabetes, but the author attempts to tow the government line of adjusting insulin levels by increasing insulin injections, not by the gold standard of don't cause a glucose spike which requires additional insulin if ever you can help it.
But, she definitely has the industry figured out, and for that, it's worth a listen.

Information Dump
Larissa is clearly an insider to the industry with lots of information - but this book is poorly unstructured and overloads detailed information. This information is nitty-gritty food science or tech related company info. These details don’t create a clean narrative and she rarely makes stances at length. If you’re a food tech founder, maybe this is a good listen - otherwise avoid.

Too Political
The author blames white males for unhealthy diets - Yes, we know the standard American diet is unhealthy. Calling for the “distribution” of nutrition, while demonizing a group of people (white males) spoils one’s appetite. Some propaganda was expected, but why would the phrase “white males” show up so often Zimberoff?
