Customer Reviews

Not Quite Everything

I almost agree with the other reviewer of this book. As a recently diagnosed diabetic requiring insulin, I have found this book a crutial tool in my management. It gives the weight of the food for the nutritive values, almost everything I need to count is here. I have owned the book for almost 7 years and I came back looking for an updated copy and sadly I found none. I want to see the Carb breakdown. (Fiber/Sugar) It's not unheared of for a revision to wait 12 years, it is much needed. I recommend it for anyone needing to weight their portions and count everything they put in their mouth.

Another great book from the Krimmels

A complete book containing all the information I really ever need easily accessible. Most reference books dealing with the breakdown of foods usually leave something I need out. As far as I can see this book has it all. A very welcome addition to my library.
