Synopsis
The extremes of American eating--our separate-but-equal urges to stuff and to starve ourselves--are easy to blame on the excesses of modern living. But Frederick Kaufman followed the winding road of the American intestine back to that cold morning when the first famished Pilgrim clambered off the Mayflower, and he discovered the alarming truth: We've been this way all along. With outraged wit and an incredible range of sources that includes everything from Cotton Mather's diary to interviews with Amish black-market raw-milk dealers, Kaufman offers a highly selective, take-no-prisoners tour of American history by way of the American stomach. Travel with him as he tracks down our earliest foodies; discovers the secret history of Puritan purges; introduces diet gurus of the nineteenth century, such as William Alcott, who believed that Ã'nothing ought to be mashed before it is eatenÃ"; traces extreme feeders from Paul Bunyan to eating-contest champ Dale Boone (descended from Daniel, of course); and investigates our blithe efforts to re-create plants and animals that we've eaten to the point of extinction., The extremes of American eating--our separate-but-equal urges to stuff and to starve ourselves--are easy to blame on the excesses of modern living.

- 8***0 (152)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAttractive price on a product that I regularly use. On prior orders from many other vendors of this product, the product arrived in a plastic bottle with 60 capsules. This order had the right total number advertised but they came in 30 packages of 2 items each. It is a minor inconvenience since I have very limited storage vs. the plastic bottle.InvigoFlex GS - Shellfish Free Glucosamine Sulfate + Boswellia Serrata 60 Count (Nr. 186380894411)
