Eat Up!

“A simultaneously challenging and forgiving manifesto, one that combines memoir, research and recipes in a call for us all to be skeptical of fads, inviting of others, and gently confident with ourselves and our tastes.” —Salon

“A colorful, thoughtful collection that reads like memoir-meets–food science, perfect for foodies and anyone looking to examine their relationship with food and celebrate the joy of eating.” —Library Journal (starred review)

“[Tandoh] looks at food as a ‘whole picture,’ sharing facts and culinary studies that will uplift readers—from waxing poetic about the liberating joys of baking to citing studies that correlate the pleasure humans derive from food to its nutritional power. . . . Home cooks will appreciate the handful of recipes sprinkled throughout, such as a sweet potato and smoky butternut squash stew with chickpea dumplings.” —Publishers Weekly

“Part memoir, occasional cookbook, and mostly manifesto, this book . . . will have those ready to tackle the problems of Western food culture nodding ‘Yes!’ as Tandoh challenges the status quo.” —Booklist
