"When it comes to food, the Chinese have a common saying, ""The massesregard food as their heaven,"" which means that food is people’s primalwant.

This book explores traditional Chinese medicine in a light approach by going into straight forward depth about Chinese history and its connection to food. One of my favorite reads as it’s easy to comprehend, compelling and informative.
