Tasty: The Art and Science of What We Eat

Well, this book was pointless. While many people may find this interesting, I must say that I did not, not because it was terrible, but just because it seemed unorganized and scatterbrained in terms of topics.

You see, the author has written for numerous different magazines and websites about food and it shows with this title. These chapters are just a smattering of food-related stories with a loose thread connecting them. On the one hand, this can be a good thing because the reader can be surprised by the topics that come up. For me however, I just found it to be incoherent and difficult to follow, as right as the stories would get interesting, the author would change to a new topic. This left me feeling unfulfilled.

Therefore, I am just going to give this a two out of five. You may enjoy this, but I did not.
