 Rating:  - Deliciously fabulous!Mr. Steingarten should be awarded for writing this book. I searched in vain for an email address so I could tell him directly how much I enjoyed his book. Leaving a short review here is my own way of saying THANK YOU. I could not have picked up a better companion for my two-month stay in Hanoi, where I went to study Vietnamese cuisine. Hours of very well written stories and good laughs. Anabela Rating: - Better Than a Midnight SnackThis book of short articles is just the thing for bedside reading. Charming,witty, and lots of fun in the world of food. It's a "pick-up put-down" book to settle you down for a great nights sleep. Rating:  - Funny, maybe - nutritionally responsible not! This may be a mildy entertaining and informative book on food around the world, but to make such wide claims as salad consumption leading to death is absurd. Steingarten obviously loves food and food high in fat, calories and cholesterol so this book will certainly make you, and himself, feel better about eating these foods, that is until you keel over from a heart attack. His advice on nutrition is out-dated, selectively researched and all together wrong in many areas. Please use caution when taking health advice from somone who spends days, weeks and a lifetime searching for the best french fry or ice cream cone. Rating: - I can't get enough!Though I've followed Jeffrey Steingarten's column in Vogue magazine ever since I first came across it, I hadn't realized that he'd published two books, both compilations of his essays in Vogue. I must say, I'm addicted. Having read both The Man Who Ate Everything, and It Must Have Been Something I ate, I am reduced to "googling" to find more Steingarten gems. Alas, the closest thing was his Q&A on egullet.com Perhaps the fact that I'm a food junkie (despite bordering on veganism) colors this review, I still appreciate the witty writing and almost exhaustive research and thought that went into each essay. Not only is he a wonderful writer, researcher, his passion of food is infectious. I highly recommend any Steingarten book.
