But she cared about where food came from, how it was made, and what it did to her body: so she decided to go an entire year without eating processed foods. Unprocessed is the narrative of Megans extraordinary year, in which she milled wheat, extracted salt from the sea, milked a goat, slaughtered a sheep, and more-all while earning an income that fell well below the federal poverty line.What makes a food processed? As Megan would soon realize, the answer to that question went far beyond cutting out snacks and sodas, and became a fascinating journey through Americas food system, past and present. She learned how wheat became white; how fresh produce was globalized and animals industrialized. But she also discovered that in daily life, as she attempted to balance her project with a normal social life-which included dating-the question of what made a food processed was inextricably tied to gender and economy, politics and money, work and play.Backed by extensive research and wide-ranging interviews-and including tips on how to ditch processed food and transition to a real-food lifestyle-Unprocessed offers provocative insights not only on the process of food, but also the processes that shape our habits, communities, and day-to-day lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51607589257504,"sku":"NEW0062382462","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81groBB7QtL.jpg?v=1778695916","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/unprocessed-my-city-dwelling-year-of-reclaiming-real-food-0062382462","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
