Reviews
"Richman's genuine, contagious enthusiasm for food keeps America the Edible enjoyable. His descriptions of favorite dishes are tantalizing, detailed, and accessible. He's more prone to visiting a standout hot-dog joint than an haute-cuisine spot, making the book useful for travelers, with even more utility provided by sidebars on how to tell an authentic eatery from a tourist trap." -- The Onion's AV Club

Synopsis
The host of Travel Channel's most popular show explains how iconic American foods have captured our culinary imaginations--you won't look at a bagel the same way again! In America the Edible, Travel Channel host Adam Richman tackles the ins and outs of American cuisine, demonstrating his own unique brand of culinary anthropology. Believing that regional cuisine reveals far more than just our taste for chicken fried steak or 3-way chili, Richman explores the ethnic, economic, and cultural factors that shape the way we eat--and how food, in turn, reflects who we are as a nation. Richman uses his signature wit and casual charm to take youon a tour around the country,explaining such curiosities as why bagels are shaped like circles, why fried chicken is so popular in the South, and how some of the most iconic American food--hot dogs, fries, and soda--are not really American at all. Writing with passion, curiosity, and a desire to share his knowledge, he includes recipes, secret addresses for fun and tasty finds, and tips on how to eat like a local from coast to coast. Part travelogue, part fun fact book, part serious culinary journalism, Richman's America the Edible illuminates the food map in a way nobody has before., The host of Travel Channel's most popular show explains how iconic American foods have captured our culinary imaginations--you won't look at a bagel the same way again In America the Edible, Travel Channel host Adam Richman tackles the ins and outs of American cuisine, demonstrating his own unique brand of culinary anthropology.

- i***v (175)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseEverything was great as usual with this seller, except shipping took a little longer than expected but this is my number one seller for buying any Disney paintings. I’m somewhere around 20 paintings from this seller and I’ll be getting more soon enough. Everything was as described. Well packaged and Best value out there.Happily Ever After - Tim Rogerson- Treasure On Canvas Disney Fine Art (#304317770656)
- z***a (479)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was described well, well packed & good value for the price. Shipping costs were low, but item took about 3 weeks to arrive. Item wasn't even shipped until 2 weeks after the interaction closed. There IS a note on the page that shipment "could take more than 9 days", but it wasn't shipped until over 10 days after payment. Items are nice, and difficult to find elsewhere...but buyers should be thoughtful about how long things may take to arrive.Perfect Match - Denyse Klette -Treasure On Canvas Disney Fine Art 101 Dalmatians (#306097922191)
