Reason #3: @_RajPatel says I have integrity and compassion., and offer an “eye-opening report.” (And he liked my book.)

REASON #3 to buy The American Way of Eating comes from Raj Patel:

“These tales lay bare the sinews, the minds, and the relationships that our food system exploits and discards. In a work of deep compassion and integrity, Tracie McMillan offers us an eye-opening report on the human cost of America’s cheap food.”

—Raj Patel, author, The Value of Nothing and Stuffed and Starved

The book goes on sale Tuesday, Feb, 21.

Please buy it.
