Customer Rating:      Summary: Amazingly comprehensive resource for people interested in food and cooking Comment: I purchased the first edition of this book almost 20 years ago and found it to be an amazing resource that I continued to use to the present day. I recently thought to myself, "I wonder if they have updated it since then?" Well, I checked Amazon, and the authors indeed have updated it (currently 4th edition). This new version is literally twice the size of the original book, which already seemed comprehensive. Of course, there have been new trends, fads, and other developments since the early 1990s and the Herbsts have addressed them.
Whenever I hear about a fruit or spice or dish that I never heard of before, the first thing I do is check the book! I have moved around to different parts of the US and as I discover regional delicacies, the book is a great resource to learn more about them. I highly recommend it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great product! Fast shipping! Comment: This is so helpful at my work whenever I have no idea what the Chef is talking about
Customer Rating:      Summary: Greatest Food Book Yet Comment: I discovered this book at a friend's house and found it to be both fascinating and adictive to poke through. A better companion to breakfast browsing than the newspapers or magazines, and constant fun in quizing eating companions to describe obscure food items and the name-sources for well known food dishes. All that, plus much more.
Rather than bring a bottle of wine to our dinner hosts, we now bring a copy of this book. We find that it is much more appreciated and lasts forever.
Customer Rating:      Summary: My Food Companion Comment: This book is a great resource for all foodies. Also it makes a great gift.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Food Lover's Companion Gets Better and Better Comment: We have a food service business, and this is completely indispensable! Every edition improves, and this is definitely the latest, greatest!
