If you are interested in food and curious about economics, this book is for you. Our approach starts by recognizing your expertise: every reader comes to this book with a lifetime of eating, making choices and thinking about food. Your intimate familiarity with food gives you a head start on our topic, ready to use the language and toolkit of economics for dialogue with others about the causes and consequences of everyone’s daily meals and snacks. Economics about food offers a new way of talking and learning about something that everyone shares, to learn from what past food economists have discovered and add new insights of your own. Economics provides a research method—a toolkit for understanding—to help explain everyday choices, predict the consequences of change and evaluate alternative outcomes so that people can make better choices in the future. Thank you for joining us through use of this book.
