Author Talk: Sugar Coated with Marion Nestle

What can a box of breakfast cereal tell us about American food and politics? Quite a lot, it turns out.

Join us for an evening with renowned food politics expert Marion Nestle, co-author with Lisa Sutherland of Sugar Coated. Using the cereal box as a lens, the book explores the marketing, health claims, lobbying, labeling regulations, and cultural messages that have helped shape the American food system.

Marion will be joined in conversation by Lane Selman, founder of Portland’s Culinary Breeding Network, followed by audience Q&A and a book signing.
