"Sorry, Marge" annotation

Scrinis, Gyorgy: “Sorry, Marge.” Meanjin, Vol. 61, No. 4, 2002, pp. 108-116
In this article, Scrinis talks about how nutritional scares have driven people away from whole foods and replaced them with artificial substitutes. The title of his article is a reference to margarine, which has been touted as a “safe” replacement for butter (when, in fact, it is nutritionally worse than butter). This article is a good analysis of one area in which nutrition has declined, and provides solid evidence for my paper.
