Book Review of Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats

reviewed on + 16 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2


I have mixed feelings about this book. The general information that challenges the "politically correct nutrition" is very good. Most of that makes sense. I really couldn't get into most of the recipes however. They are either extremely time consuming, boring(tasteless) or too exotic/strange for a house full of children. My children are use to "real" food and this was too much for them. The dessert section was banned by my husband who is usually very tolerant of my forays into "healthy" cooking. I wish they could revamp the teaching parts and combine them with family tested, short on time/money recipes.
