“Eat butter, drink milk whole, and feed it to the whole family. Stock up on creamy cheeses, offal, sausage, and, yes, bacon.”

8 years ago, Simon & Schuster published Nina Teicholz’s book The Big Fat Surprise, which is, to this day, a controversial non-fiction science-based book that attacks the common notion that fat is bad for health. The Big Fat Surprise was a NY Times bestseller, was named one of the top 10 non-fiction books by the WSJ, and one of the year’s best science books by the Economist.
