About book Eat This, Not That!/Eat This, Not That! Kids (2000)
I enjoyed this more than the supermarket version, despite the supermarket volume seemingly being of more practical use. The pictures are great and the format is clear and simple. While some of the information is very useful, especially the section on feeding kids in the back, I find these books too much information to keep in my head so that I can apply the advice to my eating decisions. Comparing specific products creates so much information that it's difficult to use off the top of your head and I don't see how the actually book would even be much help if you took it with you as it is arranged by type of food or holiday or restaurant etc. I would really like to see more of generalizing information as well as continuums of products as opposed to a yes or no, especially when some products in the yes category are better than the others to the extent that the corresponding no product is better than the yes product. I saw this gentleman recently on Oprah (a re-run I'm sure). He gave a short eat this not that quiz, and I was amazed at some of the answers. Who knew regular bacon is better for you than turkey bacon! So, I picked up one of his books at the library (he has several), and found it very informative and helpful. I have seen it at Sam's Club for $10, so I'm going to pick up my own copy so I can have it while grocery shopping, when dining out, etc.
