505 0  Unsafe at any feed -- "Big food" bigger thanks to "big 
       government" -- Wasting your money wasting food -- I say 
       "tomato," you say "no" -- There are good food rules. 
520    "Food waste, hunger, inhumane livestock conditions, 
       disappearing fish stocks--these are exactly the kind of 
       issues we expect food regulations to combat. Yet, today in
       the United States, laws exist at all levels of government 
       that actually make these problems worse. Baylen Linnekin 
       argues that, too often, government rules handcuff 
       America's most sustainable farmers, producers, sellers, 
       and consumers, while rewarding those whose practices are 
       anything but sustainable. Bitting the Hands that Feed Us 
       introduces readers to the perverse consequences of many 
       food rules. Some of these rules constrain the sale of 
       'ugly' fruits and vegetables, relegating bushels of tasty 
       but misshapen carrots and strawberries to food waste. 
       Other rules have threatened to treat manure--the lifeblood
       of organic fertilization--as a toxin. Still other rules 
       prevent sharing food with the homeless and others in need.
       There are even rules that prohibit people from growing 
       fruits and vegetables in their own yards. Linnekin also 
       explores what makes for a good food law--often, he 
       explains, these emphasize good outcomes rather than rigid 
       processes. But he urges readers to be wary of efforts to 
       regulate our way to a greener food system, calling instead
       for empowerment of those working to feed us (and 
       themselves) sustainably"--Amazon.com.
