July 30, 2025Interesting for the introductory chapters where they explain the genesis of "the Mediterranean Diet" through the machinations of the Seven Countries study.
The recipes...well, I wouldn't read this book for the recipes. It's interesting to read about the differences between some foods as prepared in the Mediterranean versus how similar foods are prepared in the States. But I can't extend my endorsement to the recipes themselves.
Nevertheless, you can read this on OpenLibrary, so there's no need to go track down a relatively expensive used copy to see what's in it. Unless you want to complete your Ancel Keys bookshelf.
