Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good Resource
This book is filled with delicious recipes for Vegans. It was very helpful when I decided to go Vegan and was short on recipes to make my favorite foods.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not for people who enjoy real food.
This book is too "radically vegan" for my taste. And speaking of "taste", nothing in this book has any. What the heck is "vegan bacon", anyway? Why bother? I guess it's easy to be a skinny bitch if you never eat anything that tastes good. It would explain the "skinny" and also the "bitch"...
Now I understand. Thanks, but I'd rather not be either.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Another fad diet book, with an extra helping of hate and anger!
This book is full of non-facts, psudeo-science and outright lies. It's is just another fad diet book, where just like any other of these bad advice books- you can lose a few pounds then gain it all back.

It has a hidden vegan agenda- nothing wrong with being vegan mind you, but why not be honest about it?

Advices goes from the "of course, heard it a thousand times" to completely wacky.

Most of the recipes are about as nutritionally balanced and tasty as eating the book itself.

And, to top it off there's a undercurrent and subtext of hateful anger in this series of books.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Might want to find an alternative
The first book that was written was very informational and started me on a kick to truly look at ingredients and find out what is in my food. This book however is not necessarily realistic in adding these recipes to your diet. A lot of the recipes call for coconut oil and have fake cheeses and meat that you could use. Soy is a big ingredient in a lot of the fake foods. Research done on soy shows that too much consumption can have a negative effect on your diet, especially if you have hypothyrodism or other ailments. There is research that goes both ways but too much of a good thing isn't always good. I guess you need to do research what you eat and find if it truly is good for you. I don't condone it, I just don't eat a lot of it. I do have this book and haven't really made much out of it. I am not in to eating fake food and would rather eat and buy things that are natural... so if you like that route too... I don't recommend it. If you are in to fake foods and coconut oil... go for it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Finally a cookbook of normal food for vegans!
Does lasagna, potatoes au gratin, or a brownie sound good? I thought so!

This cookbook has includes a wide range of foods that are fantastic every-day choices. Another plus is that most of the ingredients are repetitive so you can stock your pantry and have some pretty versitile menu options.

Below are the sections:
Breakfasts
PMS Snacks
Appetizers
Soups & Stews
Salads
Sandwiches
International
Italian
Down Home Cookin'
Staple Meals
Dressings, Sauces & Substitutes
Happy Endings (Desserts)

A particularly helpful part of this book is the glossary which defines/describes most of the foods/ingredients that would not be commonly known.

This book has less raunchy language than the other Skinny Bitch book and I think they got it right with this one.

Highly recommend!

Sales of semiconductors in November indicate that consumer products such as LCD (liquid crystal display) TVs, digital music players, and other devices sold well during the holidays, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) said Monday.

November chip sales rose 2.3 percent year-on-year to $23.1 billion, the SIA said.

Unit demand has far outpaced last year. But falling chip prices have hurt industry revenue, the chip association said. For example, DRAM (dynamic RAM) bit shipments grew 25 percent in the three months through mid-December, but average selling prices have declined 20 percent over the same period.

The association also noted that rising energy prices and concerns about the sub-prime lending issue in the U.S. do not appear to have had a significant impact on consumer spending for the holidays, the SIA said. The group reiterated its forecast that worldwide semiconductor sales will reach a new record in 2007. But it will take a stronger than expected December selling season to reach the 3.8 percent growth goal the group had forecast earlier this year, the SIA said.

Investment banking firm Credit Suisse was not as optimistic as the SIA.

The November data was below normal seasonal trends, noted analyst John Pitzer, in a report on Monday. Even if December reaches its normal seasonal growth, 2007 industry revenue will only reach $255.7 billion, up 3.2 percent over last year. The growth percentage would fall short of the SIA's 3.8 percent target.

The slow November prompted Credit Suisse to lower its 2008 chip industry revenue forecast to 9.4 percent year-on-year growth, down from a previous target of 13 percent.
