What's For Dinner?: Our Food, Our Choices, Our Planet

What’s For Dinner? is a powerful work of nonfiction that presents a clear-eyed examination of the food systems shaping our planet and our plates. Jill Griffiths argues that our eating habits are deeply entwined with environmental sustainability, agricultural practices, and ethical choices. She chronicles the journey of everyday foods—wheat, chicken, salmon, macadamias—revealing the hidden costs and consequences behind their production. The book instructs readers on how food miles, farming methods, and consumer decisions impact ecosystems and communities, while illustrating the disconnect between modern consumers and the sources of their meals. Griffiths weaves together science, history, and firsthand accounts to uncover the realities of industrial agriculture and the responsibilities we bear as eaters.
