Journalist and podcaster Nicola Twilley has dedicated years to the study of refrigeration. AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff tells host Jo Reed how this is one of the most important environmental studies of the year. The audiobook reveals the significance of cooling food and the cost to the environment of doing so, as well as its effect on flavor. Twilley is witty and ably simplifies science. She describes the elements of the “cold chain” that bring us our food, but bemoans how the convenience of the fridge often displaces flavor and sacrifices vitamins.
