Tired of fad diets and calorie-counting? Food writer Bee Wilson serves up a liberating manifesto for guilt-free enjoyment of delicious, nourishing meals. Blending her own struggles with food and body image, Wilson dismantles the damaging myths around "good" and "bad" foods. She reveals how our modern food culture has distorted our relationship with eating, and offers a path back to the simple pleasure of appreciating real, wholesome ingredients. With practical tips and inspiring recipes, "This Is Not a Diet Book" is a refreshing antidote to diet culture and a reminder that the road to health starts with loving your body, not fighting it.
