Judy Berman TIME Magazine 10/30/2021
Ultimately, the show isn't a polemic so much as it's a wake-up call, alerting us to the reality that big changes in the way we eat are afoot whether we like it or not. Go to Full Review John Anderson Wall Street Journal 10/22/2021
Mr. Chang gets us to look at food and food service differently, and in ways that aren't always pleasant -- like watching someone else eat. But overall it's enthralling, hugely informative and even, at certain times at least, appetizing. Go to Full Review tt stern-enzi Fox19 (Cincinnati, OH) 11/10/2021
