REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY – The Fart Without Fear Cookbook

We'd love it if you shared it!

I like cookbooks and I’m always on the lookout for new recipes. When I was offered the opportunity to review a cookbook called Fart Without Fear, I accepted because the name made me giggle and I wondered what would be in such a cookbook.

ABOUT THE FART WITHOUT FEAR COOKBOOK

Super Bowl parties have become a tradition right along with New Years Eve and the 4th of July. It is no longer just a day for sports enthusiast but also a day for food enthusiasts. Super Bowl has become the second largest food consumption day of the year, second only to Thanksgiving.

Each year bloggers, foodies and newspapers around the country list the hottest recipes such as last years the hot recipe the bacon-stuffed, bacon wrapped Italian sausage – a recipe sure to play havoc on your stomach. THE FART WITHOUT FEAR COOKBOOK by chefs WAYNE CHEN and GARY GOSS is a tongue-in-cheek cookbook that offers Super Bowl recipes and tips on how to avoid those embarrassing moments when the food settles and decides to “vent.”

THE FART WITHOUT FEAR COOKBOOK contains sample recipes, and outrageously entertaining yet fact-based fartoids, which teach you how to:

• Know which ingredients will produce the bad aftermaths.
• Learn how to rate, prepare and change the good or bad level of any comfort food, recipe or other favorite cuisine of choice.
• Amuse and dazzle family, friends and guests with new nutrition and scientific insights.
• Laugh out loud and often.
• Fart without fear or guilt.
• Never look at food the same way ever again.

What’s the most important thing to remember about Super Bowl recipes? It should be a day that your guests can eat guilt free because no self-respecting football snacker counts calories during the Super Bowl. But be warned, guests and hosts will have to pay the price for these fart-induced recipes.

MY THOUGHTS

I received a copy of The Fart Without Fear Cookbook. Each recipe features a M&C (Methionine & Cystine, two major sources of sulfur) index, complete with a scale comprised of pictures of little fart icons. The book is funny at times and includes lots of little jokes. The Standard M&C Concentration occurs if you make the recipe in standard fashion, which recipe is not supplied. The Fart Without Fear M&C Concentration occurs if you prepare the recipe provided in the book. The recipes are all foods you’re probably tried or at least heard of. They are easy to understand and require ordinary ingredients. I wish this cookbook contained pictures of the recipes and cooking and prep time. I like to see what the food should look like, and I find knowing ahead of time how much time a recipe takes to make invaluable since it’s a factor in my decision to make it or not. This cookbook might make a better gift for someone with a sense of humor more than it would be for someone who collects cookbooks.
