Historic LoDo: Former New York Times business reporter and mother Melanie Warner will discuss and sign her new book Pandora’s Lunchbox: How Processed Food Took Over the American Meal (Scribner). From breakfast cereal to chicken subs to nutrition bars, processed foods account for roughly 70 percent of our nation’s calories. Despite the growing presence of farmers’ markets and organic produce, strange food additives are nearly impossible to avoid. Combining meticulous research, vivid writing, and cultural analysis, Warner looks at how decades of food science have resulted in the cheapest, most abundant, most addictive, and most nutritionally devastating food in the world, and she uncovers startling evidence about the profound health implications of the packaged and fast foods that we eat on a daily basis.

Colfax Avenue: Writer and comic Julia Pandl will read from and sign her first book Memoir of the Sunday Brunch (Algonquin), a wry and insightful look back at the formative years she spent with her family at her father’s restaurant in Milwaukee. Part coming-of-age story and part window into the mysteries of the restaurant business, Pandl’s book provides tender wisdom about the bonds between fathers and daughters and about the simple pleasures that lie in the daily ritual of breaking bread.
