If you read this book because you want to learn anything about cooking, you are going to have a bad time.However, that does not mean you should not read it. You just need to go in with the right mindset. Some of these recipes I would consider trying (Guaca-hole-y) while others are a big fat NO (the infamous Saltine Nachos). Still others aren’t even recipes at all, but excuses to make puns (Scotch Egg) or as metaphors for life lessons (Pattycake). This is basically a self help book on living your life with a little bit of cooking thrown in. It contains Hart’s well known wit and love for puns, creating a hilarious and simple read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can safely say that it is the most entertaining cookbook I will ever read.
