## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    5-star content but beware the small type
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2013*

With a thorough list of food-related terms in alphabetical order, this is a book for both foodies and word lovers.BUT -- the type is really small and isn't a sharp black.  If you are farsighted or read with glasses, you are likely to have trouble with it.Content-wise, I have nothing but praise for the book.  However, if I'd known how difficult it would be to read, I'd have given it a pass.  This book is crying out to be published for Kindle and other e-readers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Awesome book but could include more items!
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2013*

Awesome book with a lot of fun information. However, found it was missing a few common food items, like Scallops. But overall, love this book! Very useful for my food writing needs. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Fascinating
  

*by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2013*

A well-researched and handy source of much information about the origins of food and drink.  A must for those who are foodies.
