Michael Carolan at the Tattered Cover

Michael Carolan will discuss and sign his latest book No One Eats Alone: Food as a Social Enterprise about becoming better food citizens. 

In today's fast-paced, fast food world, everyone seems to be eating alone whether it's at their desks or in the car. Even those who find time for a family meal are cut off from the people who grew, harvested, distributed, marketed, and sold the foods on their table. Few ever break bread with anyone outside their own socioeconomic group.

So why does Carolan say that that no one eats alone? Because all of us are affected by the other people in our vast foodscape. We can no longer afford to ignore these human connections as we struggle with dire problems like hunger, obesity, toxic pesticides, antibiotic resistance, depressed rural economies, and low-wage labor. Carolan contends that real change only happens when we start acting like citizens first and consumers second.
