Michael Moss's 'Times' Mag Cover Story On The 'Extraordinary Science Of Junk Food' Is Extraordinary


Michael MossIf there were ever a reason to be disloyal to HuffPost and read a story about food on another site (the jury's still out), this week's New York Times cover story is it. Written by investigative journalist Michael Moss, who won a Pulitzer in 2010 for his reporting on E. coli in beef, "The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food" is a gargantuan expose on the techniques the food industry uses to get Americans addicted to food, the product of a whopping four years of reportage. It's also a relatively quick read, despite its 9500-word length, so it's worth reading in full.
