 Why oh why did I not read the reviews?! October 24, 2008

I basically bought this book mainly based on the title/cover/back cover. What a stupid move. My bad. I just wish I had read reviews or had someone scream at me: THIS BOOK IS 100% VEGAN!!! Or at least put it on the cover or back cover. Even given that, I found more negatives. There are no caloric or nutritional facts presented. There are no pictures of any of the dishes...I guess they realize tofu just doesn't look appetizing to most of us. Pretty much every single recipe calls for coconut oil, onion, and garlic--what if you don't like the taste of using coconut oil?! What if you don't like smelling like onions/garlic every day? Also, being called a bitch continuously got old, as well as the cheeky use of various curse words, including the "F" word, throughout. Yes, I am a "hungry girl who wants to stop cooking crap and start looking hot," but not doing so by scrapping all the foods I enjoy and substituting tofu and tree bark.

I liked the book alot, and it touched on some very interesting subjects, on which I learned alot, and some I ready knew about, but the only thing I didn't like, was that it was geared more toward turning into a complete vegan. Hence, I have nothing against being completely vegan, and since I was recently diagnosed with IBS, this book did help alot. However, I still sometimes eat meat and fish, but now have gone completely Organic and Grass-Fed meat only. I would recommend this book to others, as I did recommend it to my son ( he is 14) to read it, to help him understand the current food industry and where our food furture is heading. I did like the Kitchen one also, has some great receipes!

Are you planning on becoming a vegan? September 24, 2008

Unless you're planning on becoming a vegan, or are already one, this book is not for you. Many of the recipes and food items discussed consisted of strictly organic products. I personally eat organic, but I also eat meat (turkey, fish & chicken). They write about strictly vegan diets that for the most part don't even sound appetizing. I enjoyed the humorous aspects of the book. Their approach was unique although not practical for the majority of people.

I bought this cookbook after reading the first book "Skinny Bitch." I am in no way a Vegan, nor is my husband. I do however love trying new things. I have cooked many things from this cookbook and everything has been WONDERFUL! The directions are easy to follow and the meals turn out perfectly every time. We eat the Veggie Enchiladas at least once a week! My husband doesn't realize he's not eatting meat. Instead he compliments me on how delicious the dinners are. Get it, you'll LOVE it!!!

This book is filled with delicious recipes for Vegans. It was very helpful when I decided to go Vegan and was short on recipes to make my favorite foods.
