Publisher's Note
The food critic for "Vogue" conducts his readers on a mouth-watering and outrageously funny survey of practically everything that anyone anywhere has ever called "dinner.

Winner of the Julia Child Book Award A James Beard Book Award FinalistWhen Jeffrey Steingarten was appointed food critic for Vogue, he systematically set out to overcome his distaste for such things as kimchi, lard, Greek cuisine, and blue food. He succeeded at all but the last: Steingarten is "fairly sure that God meant the color blue mainly for food that has gone bad." In this impassioned, mouth-watering, and outrageously funny book, Steingarten devotes the same Zen-like discipline and gluttonous curiosity to practically everything that anyone anywhere has ever called "dinner." Follow Steingarten as he jets off to sample choucroute in Alsace, hand-massaged beef in Japan, and the mother of all ice creams in Sicily. Sweat with him as he tries to re-create the perfect sourdough, bottle his own mineral water, and drop excess poundage at a luxury spa. Join him as he mounts a heroic--and hilarious--defense of salt, sugar, and fat (though he has some nice things to say about Olestra). Stuffed with offbeat erudition and recipes so good they ought to be illegal, The Man Who Ate Everything is a gift for anyone who loves food.

Industry Reviews
"[S]erves up 40 obsessional, witty and authoritative essays....His brisk and self-mockingly pedantic disquisitions on the edible are unrivaled in the completeness of their basic research."
Wall Street Journal - Raymond Sokolov (11/12/1997)

"[A] wonderful book, comprising a selection of his brilliant essays....[A]n improbable mayonnaise that in less expert hands would have curdled immediately but in Steingarten's has turned out a triumph. it is part cookbook, part travelogue, part medical and scientific treatise, part propaganda pamphlet and part self-deprecating self-portrait. Steingarten writes with marvelous ease and clarity and humor. His facts are fascinating and so are his recipes.."
New York Times Book Review - Alexander Chancellor (12/07/1997)

"He has a voice like no one else's: corrosively funny and skeptical (of food fads, dieters, and "healthy" foods), and passionate (about researching ingredients and recipes). When I read him I forget how much I'm learning--even on subjects I've spent a great deal of time thinking and reading about--because I'm having such a good time."
Kummer

"A book worth celebrating...so expertly seasoned, so full of flavorsome surprises that if it were a meal even Mr. Steingarten would have difficulty finding fault with it."
Moore

"Jeffrey Steingarten is...a witty, down-to-earth, culinary train-spotter and the kind of person you'd like to invite home to supper....He is that rare form of enthusiast you come across once in a decade, who can make odd facts utterly fascinating....This is a wonderful book--at turns funny, mouth-watering, and revelatory...."
Bamforth
