One of The Atlantic's Best Food Books of 2014

Fifty ways to be an enlightened carnivore, while taking better care of our planet and ourselves, from the founder of Slow Food USA.

We have evolved as meat eaters, proclaims Patrick Martins, and it's futile to deny it. But, given the destructive forces of the fast-food industry and factory farming, we need to make smart, informed choices about the food we eat and where it comes from. In 50 short chapters, Martins cuts through organize zealotry and the misleading jargon of food labeling to outline realistic steps everyone can take to be part of the sustainable-food movement. With wit, and insight, and no small amount of provocation, THE CARNIVORE'S MANIFESTO is both a revolutionary call to arms and a rollicking good read that will inspire, engage, and challenge anyone interested in the way we eat today.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"One of the best and most succinct arguments for buying sustainable food."―Corby Kummer, The Atlantic

"Passionate, thoughtful and more than occasionally amusing."―Ralph Gardner Jr., The Wall Street Journal

"The Carnivore's Manifesto is about a lot more than eating meat. It's about living well and having fun while being conscious of what goes into your body."―Mario Batali

"Patrick Martins is the shepherd of domesticated animal rights. Tend to them mercifully, then 'eat 'em if you want to keep 'em,' he's always said. This manifesto offers a unique perspective in an edgy, guerrilla style. You'll find it impossible to put to pasture."―Mark Ladner, executive chef at Del Posto, New York

"Read this book!"―Carlo Petrini, founder of Slow Food International

"Martins, founder of Slow Foods USA and Heritage Foods USA . . . has created a blueprint for healthy eating, sustainable farming, biodiversity, as well as for protecting culinary traditions and cultural differences. [He] is passionate, preachy, and, above all, practical-he doesn't want you to make your own ketchup or give up pizza, just to buy the best meat and produce that is in season and to chose "quality" food over "commodity" food."―Publisher's Weekly

Really fun book to read. I like Martins' take on things. If you like better-for-you and better-for-animals thinking and eating, this is your book.

Carnivore's Manifesto

January 15, 2015

Verified Purchase

This was all I could hope for. It gives the history of how food has slowly become non-food starting at the beginning of the 20th century. Clearly informative and scary. It also gives the origin of the McD logo and what it represents! That is scary, too!

1%'s Guide to Better Food Choices

October 1, 2015

Verified Purchase

Well-written and engaging, but not a practical guide for most people who want to eat well and made better food choices. Although the author makes many valid comments on the sad state of our industrialized food supply, "Do you think I am a spoiled, rich foodie for selling $140 turkeys - or that I am ripping people off because you can get a $20 turkey at the supermarket? If that turkey suffered, if its biosystem was compromised. . .and you are still basting it come Thanksgiving Day, you are an accessory to a crime," his solution to finding a way to afford a $140 Thanksgiving turkey is almost insulting to the majority of folks whose weekly food budget is $140 or less. The book felt more like a throbbing, in-your-face sales pitch for his company, Heritage Foods USA, than a practical guide to better food choices.

A hipster's advertisement

October 25, 2017

This is a Brooklyn hipster's advertisement for his business, along with some random diatribes on gun control and other political topics. I also found it interesting how he says people need to eschew supermarkets, but should use Heinz ketchup and drink Budweiser. The author comes off as a preachy tool.

Good intro book to advocacy of heritage food traditions and heritage meat

March 23, 2015

This is a good book to introduce the reader to heritage eating over and beyond meat and the primary author is written by affiliates of Heritage Foods USA. The book describes the dangers of factory farmed food and the dangers of industrial farming and how that is eroding heritage food traditions that not only produce healthier food but often tastier as well. The only reason I gave one star is because sometimes the book seems to contradict itself or seemed too subjective in its proclamations. The takeaway information from the book that I got was to be more informed about where our food is coming from, pay attention to quality and unearth food traditions that have been eroded by industrial farming practices. I especially found the idea of eating endangered heritage meat to counteract the effects of CAFOs focus on one species of one type of animal interesting. Using these endangered animal species will increase their numbers by using them, which will counter the overuse of 'mutant' non-heritage animals pushed by CAFOs.

Not just for carnivores!

June 18, 2014

These essays are a great contemplation on how we interact with food. This is not some screed focused on a diet on solely consuming meat, but rather discusses how we do and should relate with our food. And the writing is very accessible. If you like to eat, I could not recommend more!
