Michael Pollan: The Politics of Cooking

There are entire TV stations devoted to food and cooking, yet the average American spends only about 27 minutes actually cooking - about the length of a cooking show. Why? Michael Pollan, author of "Cooked: A Natural History of Transformation," sees cooking as an act that holds an important place in the heart and history of humanity. He sits down with Steve Paikin to discuss how taking back the kitchen may be the single most important step to make our food system healthier and more sustainable.
