I just finished Real Food/Fake Food by Larry Olmsted. I am glad I read it, but I ended up skimming through many sections. It may be a bit too thorough to maintain my full attention. I often felt the same point was being made over and over again for a given product. Plus, I don't need to be presented with multiple lines of evidence to believe that there are a lot of scams and shady deals out there. I am happy to have the info on which designations and sources are trustworthy though.
I just started Alton Brown's EveryDayCook. I have only read the equipment and pantry sections, but so far it seems like it is going to be a light/easy read. I am am ready for a bit of a break so that is just fine with me.
