Hardly anything on supermarket shelves is bigger, bolder, or more deliberately designed. The fiercely competitive industry that brings us Cheerios, Froot Loops, and Trix sells a distinctly American dream: indulgence and health in one convenient package.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCereal boxes chronicle our shifting national obsessions with health, ingredients, dietary advice, and American culture. They show us what sells food: cartoons for kids, athletes for men, weight loss for women. And hidden in the history of cereal package designs, we find clues to the corporate lobbying that shapes agricultural policy, health claims, and labeling regulations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Omnivore Books on Food","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48129855652098,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/0463\/6790\/files\/AuthorEvent_4.png?v=1784163533","url":"https:\/\/omnivorebooks.myshopify.com\/products\/marion-nestle-author-talk-sugar-coated-unboxing-the-hidden-forces-shaping-americas-favorite-breakfast-food","provider":"Omnivore Books on Food","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
