About This Item
Algonquin Books. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2016. First Edition. Hardcover. 1616204214 . Very light edge wear and surface scuff. Olmsted boldly walks readers through a course in food authenticity that covers olive oil, cheese, Champagne, seafood, steak, coffee, and more. Readers will be inspired by his intensity and clarity, and floored by how far some counterfeiters go to fool consumers and some historic food institutions go to protect their products and their names. Olmsteds research is impressive, and he lets no stone go unturned. He lets the terrifying facts speak for themselves, adding just a little humor . . . Olmsteds sharp language will hopefully put fires under counterfeiters everywhere . . . With the guiding hand of a good friend and prose that keeps the readers eye moving, Olmsted insists that readers shop better and cook more. Publishers Weekly, starred review ; 9.10 X 6 X 1.20 inches; 336 pages .
