Simply Brilliant - Rated
If there is a better writer of modern gastronomic prose than Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall I have not come across him. Hugh's engaging style is the best of British writing, and incredibly engaging. I could not put this book down until I had read it all. Hugh may have foibles I disagree with but his compelling style makes me hope he publishes more like this. Giles Cadman

This books layout reminded me a bit of Bill Bryson's "Notes From A Big Country" (albeit with a massive culinary bent) - it is (in general), a collection of the columns & articles on food,food preperation, the food industry & dining out, that Hugh has contributed to a number of publications over the years.
It is an interesting book, if at times a little repetitive (& understandably,slightly London / South Of England "centric") .
Hugh espouses many of the points of view you wil have heard before if you have read any of his cookery books or watched any of his TV programmes.
There are some enjoyable rants about certain fast food chains & some interesting articles on food in general (the stuff about eating in Japan was fascinating but I could have done without the descriptions of exotic family holidays, when the wind & rain were lashing against the window, mind that might just be jealousy on my part !) - a book about food & eating with plenty of personal opinion !!
Thought provoking read - Rated
On reading the title `Hugh fearlessly eats it all' my son remarked; "obviously, not much sign of a six pack there". The books content is comprised of a collection of food articles by the organically reared Hugh dating back to his student days that have not yet reached their sell by date; indeed the messages that Hugh is trying to get across are bang up to date given a recent ministerial announcement that organic food is no more healthy than conventional food - a factory farmed `red herring' if ever there was one. All in all this is a great collection of articles inviting readers to consider and question what they are eating from a man who knows (and grows) his onions.
