CHOICE Review

This book compiles in one place some important information on what Americans are eating, how trends in population and in the work force have changed what is chosen, how the markets and marketplace have changed, and what pressures have altered American agriculture and the food industry. The authors provide an overview of food economics and food-consumption data and introduce a variety of topics in food safety. This volume fills a niche in the literature and will be an important reference for persons wanting to understand aspects of food marketing and the American consumer.
