Summary: As Barbara Ehrenreich did to chronicle the lives of the working poor, Tracie McMillan took jobs picking produce in California, stocking lettuce in a Walmart in Detroit and working as an "expo" in a busy Applebee’s in Brooklyn to tell stories about how the country eats. The result is an odyssey through the food industry, and through class and American culture. McMillan is the author of "The American Way of Eating: Undercover at Walmart, Applebee’s, Farm Fields and the Dinner Table." Original air date 11/16/12
