Our March pick is Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan.

Here is a brief synopsis from Barnes and Noble of Omnivore's Dilemma:

A New York Times bestseller that has changed the way readers view the ecology of eating, this revolutionary book by award winner Michael Pollan asks the seemingly simple question: What should we have for dinner? Tracing from source to table each of the food chains that sustain us - whether industrial or organic, alternative or processed - he develops a portrait of the American way of eating. The result is a sweeping, surprising exploration of the hungers that have shaped our evolution, and of the profound implications our food choices have for the health of our species and the future of our planet.

    •  Given the size of the group I think it would be more inclusive if the sharing were organized as a "round robin" rather than people needing to be verbally assertive in order to have their voices heard. We heard a lot from relatively few. 
    •  It was a great discussion of the book. Unfortunately I was seated to the outside of the circle and so had difficulty hearing everything everyone said. 
    •  Great book. Great discussions. A number of interesting points and new things to consider. I really enjoyed it. 
    •  I thought the book club offered a great experience. Interesting conversation developed around this book.
