I like to ask this question every few months.
Currently reading Life of Pi by Yang Martel. Saw the movie a few months ago and wanted to read the book. The one I just finished was called Black Ice by Michael Connelly. It’s one of the Bosch books.

Was the book about America becoming fat what you expected?
I didn’t really have any expectations. Mostly about food regulations and culture changing to allow for the abundance of high fructose corn syrup and ever-increasing portions. Then it gets into a lot of detail about what Type 2 diabetes is.
I remember the first time I went to Europe I came back and got something sweet and it about knocked me down with how sweet it was.
Recently have cut almost all that uber-processed shit in American food to near zero, and I feel like a different person. American food standards are just bad.
