About this book
Rosanne Hertzberger wrote a controversial book entitled *Ode to E-numbers* and is regarded as one of the most prominent dissenting voices in today’s healthy food industry. If you are to believe the cooking gurus, there is nothing worse than microwave lasagne. There is no greater sin than pre-cut potatoes, tinned vegetables or artificial colourings. From Michael Pollan to Rens Kroes: they all advocate a return to grandmother’s kitchen, where fresh, simple and pesticide-free food was prepared using traditional methods.But is that really better for you? And for our planet? Rosanne Hertzberger proves the opposite and convincingly demonstrates that artificial colourings are not necessarily less healthy than natural ones, that mashed potato from a packet is not necessarily worse than that made from home-cooked,unsprayed spuds from the farmers’ market, and that inventions such as artificial fertiliser and factory farms do humanity an enormous service. Hertzberger describes the enormous impact that chemistry in our food production has on improving our health, on prosperity, the environment and on women’s emancipation.
