Really enjoyed reading this book and learning about how what we eat impacts the planet we all need and love. Can’t wait to get home from my holiday travels and make my own condiment plate to spice up my meals at home. I learned a lot about climate change and ways to reduce my own carbon footprint by eating “SLOW” food. This book makes a great gift and an addition that should be in every kitchen in our wonderful world. The facts given and the author’s sense of humor make this book an informative and entertaining read!!!
Rating: 5 / 5
This book is a fabulous reminder of how we can get pleasure from eating simple foods and lessen our bootprints on Mother Earth, both at the same time. The time is ripe for our personal and cultural relationship with food to evolve into what Laura calls a “High Vibe” one. This book should be in every classroom and doctor’s office!!

If timing is everything then this book is gets it. It is Informative with fantastic dishes. My family of four uses Ms. Stec’s recipes once a week without fail.
The two authors have combined both science and food that has left me wondering why I have been in the dark for so long. We can make a difference with the right choices!
Give the book a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Reading this book made me want to get involved with food again, much like we all did as kids – touch it, play with it, experience the textures, color and energy of it. Author Laura Stec is anything but preachy. She’s as earthy as the worms in her compost bin and accentuates the positive. She makes buying and eating responsibly sound fun and doable…without a lot of extra work or sacrifice. I’m for that!

I have really enjoyed this book for several reasons.
1. Love the create your own sauce page and the condiment plate idea- I am not a big recipe follower. This book is great at stimulating the creative juices in the kitchen.
2. It gives you quick ways to help the environment and improve your nutrition without having to read the whole book.
3. I love understanding how things work. The snipits of scientific information are fascinating and easy to understand.
4. Nice to look at! A great addition to the coffee table or the kitchen. I’ve had to buy three copies because my family members keep taking them when they visit!
