Praise for Henry Dimbleby's National Food Strategy: 'From field to fork, extraordinary work is being done to try and build a better food system for everyone ... [including] Henry Dimbleby's ambitions for safe, healthy and affordable food' - HRH King Charles III 'This is a compelling and overdue plan of action. If the Government adopts it, we will, at last, be putting our food system on the right path to health and prosperity' - Prue Leith 'Dimbleby has worked through an incredibly complex landscape and resulted in a set of comprehensive, eminently workable recommendations that are practical and will have a direct impact on our lives' - Tom Kerridge 'There is a nutritional gap between rich and poor in this country, and it's a slowly unfolding tragedy. Dimbleby not only recognises this - he has a plan to do something about it' - Dame Louise Casey

Food should be a source of joy, but the way we eat is leading us into disaster. This is a delicious, highly digestible guide to building a better food system, for the sake of our bodies and our planet. -- Prue Leith Emerging from Dimbleby's work on food supply chains during the pandemic, Ravenous explores the structures of the global food system and how environmental, health and nutritional concerns can harmoniously coexist -- 'The Books to Read in 2023' * Financial Times * Praise for Henry Dimbleby's National Food Strategy * : * From field to fork, extraordinary work is being done to try and build a better food system for everyone ...
