Today on Your Call: What do we need to know about food politics?

On today’s Your Call, we’ll have a conversation with Marion Nestle about her  new book, Eat Drink Vote: An Illustrated Guide to Food Politics, she notes, “food is of extraordinary public interest, food choices are not just personal decisions determined by cultural background, age, sex, peer groups, education or income. Food choices are also influenced by environmental factors such as advertising and marketing as well as government policies.” Join the conversation on the next Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:

Marion Nestle, Paulette Goddard Professor in the Department of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health and Professor of Sociology at New York University.
