There are things you don't want to know about in all your foods. There are a certain number of insect parts allowed per/(whatever)unit in your cereal. Your broccoli has insect feces in it, dirt, dust, and you don't want to remember what kind of mites live in your pillows.

The world is full of fun stuff we like to pretend isn't there. That's why we have immune systems.

Are this many people that naive? No one should be surprised that their food is not 100% devoid of things they'd rather not know about? C'mon people.

Surprise number 2: Many restaurants serve cleaner food than you do at home.
Very, very few home cooks have been through any of the sanitation, cleanliness, or cross-contamination classes that professional cooks do.

I'd still like to discuss something other than ads for this book. The TFP is not supposed to be an advertising forum for people who can quote book reviews from web sites.
How 'bout some quality here. I want direct lessons from this book that are supposed to be soooooo surprising. I want some shocking new information that will change the way I think about food.
Tell me more than I can learn from the FDA standards.
