Winner of the Julia Child Book Award

A James Beard Book Award Finalist

When Jeffrey Steingarten was appointed food critic for Vogue, he systematically set out to overcome his distaste for such things as kimchi, lard, Greek cuisine, and blue food. He succeeded at all but the last: Steingarten is "fairly sure that God meant the color blue mainly for food that has gone bad." In this impassioned, mouth-watering, and outrageously funny book, Steingarten devotes the same Zen-like discipline and gluttonous curiosity to practically everything that anyone anywhere has ever called "dinner."

Follow Steingarten as he jets off to sample choucroute in Alsace, hand-massaged beef in Japan, and the mother of all ice creams in Sicily. Sweat with him as he tries to re-create the perfect sourdough, bottle his own mineral water, and drop excess poundage at a luxury spa. Join him as he mounts a heroic--and hilarious--defense of salt, sugar, and fat (though he has some nice things to say about Olestra). Stuffed with offbeat erudition and recipes so good they ought to be illegal, The Man Who Ate Everything is a gift for anyone who loves food.

Very good!
Flavor Name: Tangerine, Watermelon, Blue Raspberry
Very good sour hard candy. I was instructed to use sour candy by my doctor for clogged saliva glands. Very hard to find this type of candy in the stores. A little expensive and some of the candies are not consistent in size, but acceptable. Recommend

Really pleasantly sour and delicious
Flavor Name: Tangerine, Watermelon, Blue Raspberry
Absolutely delicious and addictive! The sour is very sharp and the sweet is flavorful, not just sugary. I will buy these regularly.

CHILDHOOD
Flavor Name: Tangerine, Watermelon, Blue Raspberry
Gosshhh these things are so good and take me right back to when I was 12 years old holy crap I can’t even remember the name of those things but we all remember them. These are they just with a different name and better I can’t believe it I’ve been searching for them since I was 15 when they disappeared. I’m writing this then going to buy more before they sell out or disappear I’m gonna stock pile not gonna get me
