The Kindle version of Joe Yonan's book, Cool Beans: The Ultimate Guide to Cooking with the World's Most Versatile Plant-Based Protein, published in Feb 2020,  is a daily deal today on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca for $2.99.

I own the hardcover version of the book and have enjoyed what I've cooked from it.

You can skip one shipment per year.  I should do that or just drop out and order what I need.  But FOMO won't let me....🙃
