I am not a foodie. I’ve said it before and I’m going to have to keep saying it in case some people get the wrong idea because of all of the foodie type books I find myself reading, and of course my workday spent talking about food and encouraging people to talk about food. I’m fascinated by foodies and food talk is what pays my bills. I am still not a foodie. But, I do like a good foodie type book.
Tummy Trilogy – that’s a good foodie book. I liked the first two books of the trilogy better than the third. Maybe I was all foodied out by the third book? By the third book I was tired of hearing about the guy with the naugahyde palate. I was also tired of hearing about Alice and her three meals a day mantra. A wee bit tired of hearing about Sarah and her bagel… “just in case”. Yea, I think it was just foodie overload for me.
Good book – just a wee bit too much of a good thing, for this non-foodie, at least.
