Lileks, James. Gallery of Regrettable Food. 192 p.
Unlike my previous posting, this is a book I can recommend without reservation. I laughed so hard while reading it that my kids kicked me out of the room! Don't limit yourself to a quick perusal of the photos, as terrific as they are. Lilek's commentary is the best part. Consider the following: "Dessert? It's a core sample from a mass grave," and "...this man has just had his buttocks lanced with a hot railway spike," and my favorite, "...Whatever you got that's potted, I'll take it, pal." Share your own personal highlights here, please!
