Foodies and trivia lovers will eat up this irreverent and fascinating book about the origins, misconceptions, sciences, and subcultures behind certain foods and spices. Siegel digs deep to uncover weirdly entertaining facts about food that will leave listeners alternately fascinated and moderately disgusted. From the origins of a well-known cereal, to mummified heads in honey, to the most expensive and exotic spice in the world being a synonym for boring—there’s something for everyone. Over the course of 10 chapters, Siegel spills the beans on so many different “common” foods; walking into the grocery store or showing up at a potluck with a favorite dish will never be the same again. Brilliantly read by Roger Wayne who suffuses energy and hilarity into his narration. VERDICT A feast for the mind.
