Nutritionists are slowly acknowledging the awful truth: simply telling us
which foods are “healthy” is not enough to change the way we eat. Food, Health

explores the symbolic weight of everything from meat and wedding cakes to family
meals and eating out. Published by Routledge, £15.99, ISBN 0415156807.
