Devoured : from chicken wings to kale smoothies-- how what we eat defines who we are
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references (pages 359-388) and index.

A look at the deeper meaning behind our food choices: from the prioritization of convenience over health to the ways food at work affects our happiness; from the American obsession with "having it our way" at Starbucks, Chipotle and other chains that individualize the eating experience to the fascinating dynamic between highbrow food culture -- artisan this and small-batch that -- and the lowbrow, such as Taco Bell's sale of 100 million Doritos Locos Tacos in just ten weeks.
