About the First Edition

I have to recommend. . .
Nourishing Traditions
by Sally Fallon. The first chapter of her book is so right on target that I feel a little guilty for taking her ideas. But what she pointed out is that independent producers of food—such as people who present us with meat, poultry, eggs and butter—provide the lowest profit margin in the industry. People who put out junk food. . .have an incredible return on invested capital because they are putting out low-cost items and making a very high profit.

Author of
The Atkins' New Diet Revolution

Nourishing Traditions
is more than a cookbook—it's an
education
that will lead you to "cook with pride," as you will know that you are giving your family the proper nourishment for a lifetime of vigorous good health. Now
that
is the real "joy of cooking!"

William Campbell Douglass, MD
Author of
The Milk Book

Nourishing Traditions
. . .is a work of genius. . .richly encyclopedic. . .. Run, don't walk to the nearest phone and order
Nourishing Traditions.

Felix Letter

This cookbook is unique. . .
. Nourishing Traditions
throws down the gauntlet to challenge the "Diet Dictocrats."

Beatrice Trum Hunter
Author of
Consumer Beware

As a convinced vegetarian of some 25 years, I opened Sally Fallon's book to her many meat recipes and immediately closed it again. But then I figured that there must be more to it than that. There is. . .. I was surprised at the wealth of information to help me (even as a vegetarian) make better food choices and prepare the ones I have chosen to get the most nourishment from them.

Peter Hinderberger, MD, Past President
Physicians Association for Anthroposophical Medicine

I figured it would be only a matter of time before people would realize that lowfat and low-cholesterol diets were highly overrated for healthfulness. Now comes a cookbook author and food writer who is well aware of the politically correct nutrition misinformation, but who also has the knowledge and courage to challenge its assumptions.
