From the publisher: "This book is a compilation of abandoned grocery lists that have been discovered in grocery carts, market floors, and parking lots across the country. If we are what we eat, then this book reveals deep truths about the average American (not to mention more mundane truths like a surprising number of people enjoy onions, and, for most people, mayonnaise is very, very difficult to spell). Separated into chapters (funny lists, sad lists, unhealthy lists, organized lists) the book also includes commentary by the author and some very special recipes created from found grocery lists. Sidebars and food facts round out the menu."
Some reasons you and your friends will like it:
A. It's classy: Full color, 240+ pages, hardcover, with yummy recipes, too!
B. It's surprising: Read a funny story about Chevy Chase, learn about a 2,000-year-old grocery list, see lists from all 50 U.S. states.
C. It's funny: Find out the 20 most misspelled words on our shopping lists, see the weirdest (and dumbest) objects someone has written their list on, and ponder why someone would go shopping for "poo."
D. Bill Keaggy is cool and if you want to be cool, well, you know what to do here. (added by me)
