Book

Eat up! : food, appetite, and eating what you want / Ruby Tandoh.

Summary:

"Collection of essays about food and how we think about it. With recipes"-- Provided by publisher.

Ruby Tandoh implores us to enjoy and appreciate food in all of its many forms. Food is, after all, what nourishes our bodies, helps us commemorate important milestones, cheers us up when we're down, expands our minds, and connects us with the people we love. But too often, it's a source of anxiety and unhappiness. With Eat Up!, Tandoh celebrates one of life's greatest pleasures, drawing inspiration from sources as diverse as Julia Child to The Very Hungry Caterpillar, flavor memories to jellied eels. She takes on the wellness industry and fad diets, and rejects the snobbery surrounding "good" and "bad" food, in wide-ranging essays that will reshape the way you think about eating.
