Hated this. Distorted statistics mixed with cliched sound bites and fermented in rhetoric.
For starters, sugar and starch have more calories than lettuce and fruit not just for each dollar, but also for every pound.
The author took a couple of well known symptoms(run-off! animal cruelty! resistant bacteria!), tossed it together in a salad bowl, and chucked it in the general direction of the nebulous "food industry".
