SALT SUGAR FAT:How the Food Giants Hooked Us

From a Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter at The New York Timescomes the explosive story of the rise of the processed food industry and its link to the emerging obesity epidemic. Michael Moss reveals how companies use salt, sugar, and fat to addict us and, more important, how we can fight back.

Every year, the average American eats thirty-three pounds of cheese (triple what we ate in 1970) and seventy pounds of sugar (about twenty-two teaspoons a day). We ingest 8,500 milligrams of salt a day, double the recommended amount, and almost none of that comes from the shakers on our table. It comes from processed food. It’s no wonder, then, that one in three adults, and one in five kids, is clinically obese. It’s no wonder that twenty-six million Americans have diabetes, the processed food industry in the U.S. accounts for $1 trillion a year in sales, and the total economic cost of this health crisis is approaching $300 billion a year.

In Salt Sugar Fat, Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter Michael Moss shows how we got here. Featuring examples from some of the most recognizable (and profitable) companies and brands of the last half century—including Kraft, Coca-Cola, Lunchables, Kellogg, Nestlé, Oreos, Cargill, Capri Sun, and many more—Moss’s explosive, empowering narrative is grounded in meticulous, often eye-opening research.

Moss takes us inside the labs where food scientists use cutting-edge technology to calculate the “bliss point” of sugary beverages or enhance the “mouthfeel” of fat by manipulating its chemical structure. He unearths marketing campaigns designed—in a technique adapted from tobacco companies—to redirect concerns about the health risks of their products: Dial back on one ingredient, pump up the other two, and tout the new line as “fat-free” or “low-salt.” He talks to concerned executives who confess that they could never produce truly healthy alternatives to their products even if serious regulation became a reality. Simply put: The industry itself would cease to exist without salt, sugar, and fat. Just as millions of “heavy users”—as the companies refer to their most ardent customers—are addicted to this seductive trio, so too are the companies that peddle them. You will never look at a nutrition label the same way again.

Praise for Salt Sugar Fat

“Michael Moss understands a vital and terrifying truth: that we are not just eating fast food when we succumb to the siren song of sugar, fat, and salt. We are fundamentally changing our lives—and the world around us.”–ALICE WATERS

“[A] terrific, powerfully written book, jammed with startling disclosures, jaw-dropping confessions and, importantly, the charting of a path to a better, healthier future.”–RON SUSKIND, PULITZER PRIZE–WINNING AUTHOR

“A breathtaking feat of reporting…a truly important book.”–MARION NESTLE, AUTHOR OF FOOD POLITICS AND WHAT TO EAT

“A shocking, galvanizing manifesto against the corporations manipulating nutrition to fatten their bottom line—one of the most important books of the year.”–KIRKUS REVIEWS

“Moss’s vivid reportage remains alive to the pleasures of junk—'the heated fat swims over the tongue to send signals of joy to the brain'—while shrewdly analyzing the manipulative profiteering behind them. The result is a mouth-watering, gut-wrenching look at the food we hate to love.”–PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

Spiritual - Occupy Wall Street - Assholes!

I spent my career helping to protect people and businesses....and idiots from "Occupy Wall Street" think it's fun to tear everything down and destroy our culture. They are mostly a bunch of lazy sheep that don't want to work and want wealth re-dsitribution. Instead of working for things they want, they would rather destroy everything.

Intellect - VP Debate - Disgusted!

Vice President Biden was so disrespectful with the goofy smile and constant interruptions. I wish Ryan would have put him in his place. Mr. Vice President, I don't know what's so funny. Your administration has increased the national debt, has failed to reduce the unemployment rate, doled out billions in poor investments to solar companies with political ties, has a DOJ that will not explain Fast and Furious, a failed TARP Program that wasted money instead of focusing on "Shovel-Ready" jobs, and has mislead the American Public about the events in Libya.

FORGET OBAMA AND ROMNEY...

THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST WORRISOME STATISTICS IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS.

25% of women in this country are on medication for mental illness!

That's scary as hell, since it means 75% are running around with no medication at all.
