Well, the first thing I have to say about this book is - you take a gamble when you buy books, even when they are at the recommendation of a friend. I gambled - and lost my $12.99 with this little purchase.

My friend - who meant well, I know, said this was a great read - really funny and informative. In truth, I found it to be just the opposite. If you are looking for a book about how to be an 'extreme eater' and push yourself toward the 'Hollywood' view of body types and weight loss, this book is a great place to start. It is basically a thesis, written in coarse and vulgar language, about the sins of people who eat sugar and meat. It is meant to be funny and irreverant, but comes off as insulting and extreme.

In the view of the writers of this little literary jewel, you are a horrible person not fit to live if you eat meat - of any sort - and would dare to let sugar pass your lips. The explainations of why you should not eat meat are anchored in extreme vegan rhetoric and are far from indisputable fact.

In short, I am sorry I wasted my money and corrupted my mind with this drabble. The book is far more toxic than any food that I eat! So I say, eat those M&Ms - just don't eat a whole one pound bag!
