Fun book for food dorks

[jbo_c]

This is a great reference book to have around. Just thought I’d share. I like it more than most of my more specific cook books. Basically its a dictionary of sorts of anything food related you can think of. Something well over 600 pages or so.

I’ve had it for years and just spent about a half hour with it and a cup of coffee doing stream-of-consciousness page flipping.

You or the foodie in your life might enjoy it too. No affiliation. Just enjoy it enough I thought I’d share.

Nice! Ordered it. I always prefer books like this or about food science vs just cook books.

Does it have pop-up illustrations for those of us who went to public schools?

The reading deficiency crowd wants to know.
