Food : a love story / Jim Gaffigan.

Gaffigan, Jim, (author.).

Summary:

"Gaffigan has made his career rhapsodizing over the most treasured dishes of the American diet ('choking on bacon is like getting murdered by your lover') and decrying the worst offenders ('kale is the early morning of foods') ... [Now] he will give them what they really crave--hundreds of pages of his thoughts on all things culinary(ish). Insights such as: why he believes coconut water was invented to get people to stop drinking coconut water, why pretzel bread is #3 on his most important inventions of humankind (behind the wheel and the computer), and the answer to the age-old question 'which animal is more delicious: the pig, the cow, or the bacon cheeseburger?'"-- Provided by publisher.
