I'm pretty sure even plant-based folks would find something useful in the book. It shows how the govt has subsidized incredibly poor-quality foods (sugary cereals, for instance) at the expense of real food. Even if you are not partial to animal foods you'll learn about how actual food - basically stuff that can't be faked - are a problem in a fiat economy that makes them more and more expensive.

I don't think the cover is clickbait. Saifedean is a carnivore and has done a fairly deep dive on nutrition himself. You might find interviews with his brother - a doctor - interesting if you want to look more into this.

[The book might make you question what you think is the "consensus:" who funds it, who publicizes it, who benefits from it. But I believe that you and I already had that conversation around vaccines so maybe I should stop here 😂]
