The bananas we eat today arent your parents bananas: We eat a recognizable, consistent breakfast fruit that was standardized in the 1960s from dozens into one basic banana. But because of that, the banana we love is dangerously susceptible to a pathogen that might wipe them out. Thats the story of our food today: Modern science has brought us produce in perpetual abundance once-rare fruits are seemingly never out of season, and we breed and clone the hardiest, best-tasting varieties of the crops we rely on most. As a result, a smaller proportion of people on earth go hungry today than at any other moment in the last thousand years, and the streamlining of our food supply guarantees that the food we buy, from bananas to coffee to wheat, tastes the same every single time. Our corporate food system has nearly perfected the process of turning sunlight, water and nutrients into food. But our crops themselves remain susceptible to the natures fury. And nature always wins. Authoritative, urgent, and filled with fascinating heroes and villains from around the world, Never Out of Season is the story of the crops we depend on most and the scientists racing to preserve the diversity of life, in order to save our food supply, and us.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in sustainability. The discussions around food supply and demand are super relevant. It's a real eye-opener!

Thought-Provoking Read
This book really opened my eyes to how our constant demand for certain foods impacts the environment. The author's arguments are compelling and well-researched. I couldn't put it down!

Challenging Assumptions
I really liked how this book challenged my views on food consumption. It's well-written and thought-provoking, even if some parts are a little dense.
