Unsavory Truth: How Food Companies Skew the Science of What We Eat is a 2018 book by American academic Marion Nestle.
In the book, Nestle heavily criticizes research funded by food companies as motivated by increasing profits through marketing.
[3] The book covers research into subjects including candy, sweeteners, meat and dairy products,[3] spending an entire chapter discussing Coca-Cola's initially undisclosed funding of the Global Energy Balance Network.
[3] She says that psychological research has shown effects of funding on scientists can be unconscious and unintentional,[10] and that positive findings are rarely due to fraud.
"[2][11] Felicity Lawrence, reviewing Unsavory Truth in Nature wrote that she believed that Nestle is too generous in "exonerating" scientists for publishing misleading science due to unconscious bias.
