Who: Michael Pollan, journalist and author of In Defense of Food.

He calls it a "manifesto" -- but it's also a guide to a saner, healthier way of eating.
  • Shopping strategy "I avoid factory-farmed food, so once a week, I go to my farmers' market, where I load up on whatever's in season. I get locally raised meat there too."

  • Budget trick "Well-grown, unprocessed food can cost more, but I find I don't need as much to feel satisfied when the food is high quality."

  • Dining-out tactic "I really care where my food comes from, but I also care about being a good guest. So I eat whatever is put in front of me and don't make special requests."
