Shortlisted, Best Soft Cover Food Related Book, Australian Food Writers Awards 1999 Finalist, Best Food Book, World Food Media Awards 1999 In this gastronomic tour of some of the basic stuff of life, Cherry Ripe debunks, demystifies and delivers the goods on olive oil, ice, pasta, chillies, ginger, stock, sugar and lots more. Behind the contemporary predilection for savouring the newest foods and for all things gustatory, and just as we seem to love the latest spread or spud, we also have a fear of good, fresh food that can only be sated by extreme processing, manufacturing and detoxing. Find out about Terminator seeds, crack for cows, square fish and a mango called R2E2. About how Columbus goofed and Marco Polo lied. How a whole nation was led to believe that pasta grew on trees. The link between Prince Charles and Chicken Tonight, and ice, the Chinese and fish and chips. How the beef industry shot itself in the hoof, and the possibility that the Bible might just be nutritionally correct. From edible thistles to over-the-hill oils, green fish to white polenta, and Wild West Buffalo trails to the Botanical Ark, Cherry's passionate and well-informed opinions and recipes will make you sit up, take notice, and question one of life's safe pleasures.
