Thank you Kim and Rory! Your book is great!
This is stuff that ALL of us NEED TO KNOW, desperately!! I cannot tell you how sickened I was of the food industry when I read this book. It made me look up a lot of stuff, and it is just sickening!
opening our eyes to the horrrorsMay 5, 2006 11 out of 14 found this review helpful
The book covers topics easy to read and almost impossible to read. I cannot imagine eating meat again. My diet is so much healthier now. Fruit in the morning, organic grains during the day, effectively no processed anything ... if we all ate this way, the planet would be richer and all people healthier. I read the book in a day three weeks ago. I've probably dropped 4-5 pounds (I don't need to lose any more) and I am at peace with what I purchase, prepare, and consume. Check it out. Changes to your life will all be positive!
gratuitous vulgarityApril 27, 2006 7 out of 15 found this review helpful
Bought the book and it has good information; however, this is the kind of language you'd expect to find from lingering too long near the famed opiate runways of the "Beautiful People." Marine Drill Instructors might talk like this to recalcitrant recruits...but most people do not use this kind of language. Physical beauty and health is important, but there are things more important. I've seen a lot of men leave "skinny bitches" for kind, fat women.
A vulgar book, that is not for everyoneApril 26, 2006 58 out of 86 found this review helpful
There are some good tips in this book, but the vulgar way in which the information is discussed I find really tragic. I don't need to be cursed at to understand the value of nutrition, so what could have been a really funny and interesting book becomes a four letter word cuss-a-thon! I find the homage to Tony Robbins and Dr Wayne Dyer, a complete joke...These men would never subject their readers to such immature profanity...that serves no other purpose, than shock value. Too bad being a vegan can't clean out your mouth!
hilariously funny diet bookApril 13, 2006 10 out of 14 found this review helpful
WOW!!! I don't know where to start. I, like most other people, had no idea what kind of crap I was putting into my body. This book really opened up my eyes. I've already started cooking and eating differently, and I feel a world of a difference! You CAN eat yummy things and still lose weight - you just have to eat the RIGHT things. My life is forever changed, as are those of my friends to whom I have lent this amazing book.
