Tried reading this one because I loved food, but the essays were too formulaic to hold my interest.

I was drawn in at first by the impressive selection of foods covered in the book, and that they were displayed in a straightforward, non-intimidating way. Foods are packaged in bite-sized chapters, making it very satisfying to pick up and read for a short time. Alternatively, because of the range of subjects, it is easy to read large portions in a sitting.
I enjoyed both the content and the writing style, The readability is enduring; it would make a wonderful present. Because the writing is approachable and interesting, it is a great read for everyone, not only foodies.
