The Secret Life Of Groceries: The Dark Miracle Of The American Supermarket by Benjamin Lorr
The Dark Miracle of the American Supermarket
An immersive investigative portrait of the modern supermarket that unmasks how food arrives on shelves and the hidden costs behind everyday purchases — from exploited labor and cutthroat commodity trading to industrialized processing, opaque supply chains, and environmental damage — showing how corporate consolidation, marketing and efficiency priorities shape what we eat, obscure risks to workers and consumers, and produce surprising social and ecological consequences.
