In Broken Food, Rob Scott delivers a provocative 2026 investigation into the collapse of the American nutritional landscape, tracing the systemic pivot from nutrient-dense, farm-based meals to a trillion-dollar industry of engineered cheap calories. By weaving the narrative of a Texas-based cottage food entrepreneur with a rigorous historical and economic analysis, Scott exposes how government-subsidized overproduction and industrial processing have prioritized shelf-stable volume over human health. The book contrasts the communal, biology-bound labor of 19th-century farms with the modern urban struggle, where hyper-palatable processed goods fuel metabolic disease and dependency. Ultimately, it serves as a powerful call for food sovereignty, detailing how modern homesteaders use evolving state laws to bypass industrial machines and restore raw, wholesome materials to the American table.
