Potato, Monsanto and mono agriculture. Ahh tale as old as time. Even though this book was written nearly 30yrs ago, we can still agree that Monsanto is evil. I actually like the way this chapter was written the most, as it feels more organized and intentional thn the frist two. The interchange between history of potatoes and the author's present exploration makes reading interesting all the way through.

Gosh damn this might be the best part of the book. It lowkey makes me wanna try marijuana and observe its effect on our minds. AND I wanna learn more about natural substances as well. 10/10 for this part.

The tulip chapter is amazing actually. I never gave this flower much thought before reading, but now I'm obsessed with tulipomania and considering picking up The Black tulip.

The chapter about apple was more about Johnny Chapman than it was about apples... let's hope it gets better from here
