Description
This book is not a manual but provides an information kit so we can find our way intelligently and make decisions. Nutrition is a constant talking point, but often there is a lack of knowledge and judgement. Amidst this confusion of facts, Manfred Kriener clarifies the rapid change of our food culture. He covers the entire range from the vegan trend to insect food, from aquaculture to cultured meat. Kriener also focuses on the various obscure quality seals, chaotic labelling on the wine rack and our inconsistency as consumers. The new world of food in eleven chapters, spicy at times, but plenty of food for thought and to whet the appetite.

Reviews
“On nutrition and agriculture there are waste silos of educational volumes that almost seem obsolete because of Manfred Kriener’s books"
(from the foreword by Vincent Klink, award-winning chef)
“The author's writing style makes the factual non-fiction book a pleasure to read. Kriener's work is a perfect complement to Bas Kast's book "The Diet Compass"
(Michaela Schießl, Der Spiegel)
