most informative book of its kind considering the pub date!

For those of us who need information about the caloric content of brand name foods, this book broke new ground. Finally, I learned that a yummy Thomas' English Muffin contained only 120 calories whereas two slices of plain white bread contained 150!. Perfect example of saving 30 calories and having twice as much fun!!.Exchanges used to be so boring...but with Maynard's careful research, dieting is a game that is finally a constructive one. On the downside, the information from 1980 is too old to use in 1998. When is Maynard going to write an updated version? We need her kind of information ASAP, especially for our overweight children.
