Who Controls What You Eat? | Marion Nestle | Escaped Sapiens Podcast #27 (part 1)

Our food system is complicated, and there are many competing interests that determine which products end up on shelves for purchase. In this episode of the podcast Marion Nestle discusses the different factors that control the food that ends up on your plate. We cover the influence of advertising, corporate influence on health research and policy, and positive the impact that individual consumers are able to have.
