 But the world's biggest food companies and food scientists say things are better than ever. To unravel this riddle, Kaufman moves down the supply chain like a detective solving a mystery, revealing a force at work that is larger than Monsanto, McDonald's or any of the other commonly cited culprits—and far more shocking.

Kaufman's cover story for Harper's, ""The Food Bubble,"" provoked controversy throughout the food world, and led to appearances on the NBC Nightly News, MSNBC, Fox Business News, Democracy Now, and Bloomberg TV, features on National Public Radio and the BBC World Service, and an address to the General Assembly of the United Nations.
