Ultra-Healthy or Overindulgent?

What we eat when we eat alone 0

My dear friend Deborah Madison has created a delightful book called What We Eat When We Eat Alone, an investigation into some of our most intimate moments.  When no one is looking, no one is judging, and your most secret cravings can come out, what do you eat? And how?

As a companion/intro, Deb has created this YouTube video (less than 5 minutes long—watch below) interviewing a few of the many people she spoke to for the book.  All walks of life are there, and the responses are fascinating, tell-tale vignettes in their own right.  Illustrations are provided by her husband Patrick McFarlin.  Stop into to your local independent bookseller and pick up a copy now (or if you like, Amazon has it here).

Kurt Michael Friese is chef/owner of Devotay in Iowa City, serves on the Slow Food USA Board of Directors, and is editor-in-chief of the magazine Edible Iowa River Valley. His new book, A Cook’s Journey: Slow Food in the Heartland, was published in August 2008. He lives with his wife Kim in rural Johnson County.
