From the publisher

Seasoned foodies are sure to eat up all the fun facts in Julia Rothman's Food Anatomy, a tasty tour of cusine from all around the world.

Julia Rothman starts with an illustrated history of food and ends with a global tour of street eats. Along the way, Rothman serves up a hilarious primer on short-order egg lingo and a mouthwatering menu of how people around the planet serve fried potatoes-and what we dip them in.

Award-winning food journalist Rachel Wharton lends her expertise to this light-hearted exploration of everything food that bursts with little-known facts and delightful drawings.

Also available in Julia Rothman's Anatomy series: Nature Anatomy, Nature Anatomy Notebook, Ocean Anatomy, Farm Anatomy and Wildlife Anatomy.
