註釋
This book explains why food policy in Britain has become so controversial in the last decade, using as a case study the policies to reduce cholesterol levels, though the findings are relevant to other issues in food policy. The author suggests that neither the Department of Health nor the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, have a great deal to gain from large-scale changes in food policies or food consumption. The historical division of responsibilities between the two means that the Department of Health has surprisingly little control over food policies and is reluctant to commit itself to challenging the targets of cholesterol levels, or other changes which will require the co-operation of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food. Historically that Ministry has been concerned to produce as much food as possible. The question of food quality has therefore tended to remain politically underdeveloped.
