What's Cookin' discussion

This thread is where we will discuss the books of the month. What do you think of them? Are you enjoying them? Have you tried any of the recipes & if so how did they come out?

April's books of the month are:

I'm really enjoying It's an interesting book. The books looks at the business aspect of how/why these food companies have spent so much time & money on creating this society of pre-made foods & ultimately how it effects us all. I'm only about 25% in but enjoying it so far. Has anyone else read this or started it yet? Thoughts?

I read the week it was released and really enjoyed it. It does a great job of laying out the history of processed foods and how we got to the point we are at now in our nation's eating patterns.

I just finished reading this. Fascinating, but I didn't think any of it was a surprise. I wish there had been a little more information on the physiology of food, and how salt, sugar, and fat really affect our bodies.

We have four books of the month this month. Hope you can take a moment to check them out.
