In the article, “Deconstructing Dinner,” David Kamp discusses in detail Michael Pollan’s novel, The Omnivore’s Dilemma. In his discussion, Kamp breaks down the most notable aspects of Pollan’s novel, making sure that Pollan’s view that the American diet has led to dysfunctional eaters is clear. Kamp notes that throughout the novel, Pollan places an emphasis on the development of the final product, rather than the final product itself. I plan on utilizing this writing piece in backing up my claim that the American agricultural industry is changing from past traditional means.
