Another book recommendation. I recommend everyone at least buy Vani Hari's book the Food Babe Way. This is the woman who with her food babe army has taken on some of the biggest of the big food companies in a effort to make their products less poisonous, and she has won - many times. Actually she has cost these huge companies so much pain and money that I am really surprised she is still alive. She is the one who found out about an ingredient in Subway sandwich shop bread that is also used in yoga mats (azodicarbonamide.)! She told them nicely to please take it out. They told her to go away. In just a few days she over 100,000 food babe army signatures on a petition. Subway caved. This is just one example. She is also a big reason why your Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks now has actual pumpkin listed as an ingredient! She took Chick-fil-A to task to improve their nutrution. They soon removed several dyes, corn syrup, and TBHQ from their menus. She is a big reason why Panera removed 150 additives from their menu items (yes 150). So, even if you don't actually read the book (which you should because it's actually pretty good) she deserves to make some money to use for her team of 24 hour body guards.
