BOOK REVIEW: Yuck! The Things People Eat by Neil Setchfield
Following my book Fierce Food, I still had a niggling
curiosity on all things weird that landed on the dinner table. Questions
started flitting around in my mind: How do some of these atrocious food items
look like?, What do people in these countries describe the tastes like? and
even What paired well with these foods? By now, all of you may have eyes
popping out of your head at my somewhat appalling attraction but dive into this
book and you will feel the same way as me.
From stir-fried tarantula to goat’s testicles, Yuck!
presents more than 100 of the world’s most bizarre dishes, as captured by
renowned photographer Neil Setchfield.
Full of culinary wonders, this remarkable book is guaranteed
to provoke a reaction – whether that be ‘Yuck!’ or, indeed, ‘Yum!’.
The graphics in this book are bound to catch your eye with
balut (duck embryo famous in the Philippines) glistening on the page, or
perhaps the skewered grilled snake might just tickle your fancy. Bon appétit
folks!
