The Fear Babe

The book the natural and organic food industries don't want you to read!Have you heard of famous food activist Vani Hari? You know, the blogger and New York Times bestselling author also known as "The Food Babe", who abhors biotechnology, thinks sugar is "toxic", and is famous for berating Starbucks' Pumpkin Spice Latte for, *gasp*, containing "no real pumpkin", and bullying Subway for using so-called "yoga mat chemical" in its bread?If you've questioned Ms. Hari's iffy, unscientific claims about food, or wondered whether there is any truth behind the self-styled "world changing" food activist's claim that "there is no acceptable level of any chemical to ingest ever", look no further. This 400+ page tome, with foreword by Dr. Kevin Folta, professor and chairman of the Horticultural Sciences Department at the University of Florida, is a systematic, science-based debunking of the all-too-popular food activist's claims, and an exploration of why such charlatans continue to have a stronghold on the public.
