This is a pleasant read. It's an ecelctic mix of essays around the subject of food. I have pulled out a few essays for my husband's kids to read, to show them how some other people in the world approach the dinner table. Long after having read it, I still think about some of the essays and I will be sure to pick it up and read it again sometime. If you like this genre of writing, you'll enjoy this little book.
A deliciously refreshing read
Rating: 4/5
I thoroughly enjoyed We Are What We Ate. With few exceptions, the stories were endearing, funny, and very, very real. I loved the tribute to junk food and the touching memoir of the onion pie. A mouth-watering, heart-touching treasure, profits from this book also benefit Save Our Strength, an anti-hunger organization.
