«Swallow This: Serving Up the Food Industry's Darkest Secrets» is Joanna Blythman's essay (Fourth Estate, paperback, 312 pages, in English).
Journalist Joanna Blythman investigates what processed foods contain and how they are made. With 25 years of experience in the food chain, she explains why many products taste the same, what terms like 'natural flavour' or modified starch hide, and how packaged salads, smoothies, pita bread and ready meals are produced.
The book is divided into two parts: the workings of the processed food system and its defining characteristics. It includes bibliographic references and an index.
Aimed at readers interested in food, health, responsible consumption and investigative journalism.
Joanna Blythman is a British investigative food journalist and writer and a commentator on the British food chain who has covered subjects including salmon farming, supermarkets, intensive pineapple production, bird flu and the causes of obesity.
