We are hypercritical, obsessed with weight loss, and distracted by the countless advertisements we see to eat, exercise, and dress differently.

In Broken Bread, Dillehay identifies the four major food sins and the fears that drive them, and she offers a new way of thinking about food less to focus on more important matters.
