Acclaim for
THE DEVIL'S FOOD DICTIONARY*

"Worth every second you'll spend in Hell for reading it!"
---His Eminence Tomás de Torquemada, CEO, Spanish Inquisition

"An indispensable resource! The gastronomical world has more than its share of posers, hustlers, backstabbers, and flashes-in-the-pan. Readers will find them all here--under egg foo young, squid ink, scallion, and foam, respectively."
---Auguste Escoffier, chef

"You'd have to be dead not to enjoy The Devil's Food Dictionary. Luckily for me, I am!"
---Ambrose Bierce, author

"A must-have! The Devil's Food Dictionary deserves a place in every food-obsessed person's particular place for keeping things of that nature."
---Oscar Wilde, aphorist

"As a highly paid adventure writer, I have a reputation for cutting to the chase. So listen up, and listen good: Anyone who expects to find another food dictionary containing the words chilblain and bloody sputum is living in a dream world. It's as simple as that."
---Dean Grueling, Deer Skewer Magazine

*from people who are imaginary and/or deceased.





The market for food books appears, at last, to have begun devouring itself.
Nearly every topic worth writing about has been written about, and the well
of dependable, interesting information on food, once thought inexhaustible, is
beginning to run dry.

In circumstances such as these, author Barry Foy believes that an honorable
writer has nowhere to go but sideways, into the realm of lies, misleading claims,
 and baseless speculation. With nearly 1,100 entries on subjects ranging from
ingredients to utensils to history to techniques, plus 246 footnotes, an extensive
fraudulent bibliography, and 26 peculiar illustrations, The Devil's Food Dictionary
promises much-needed relief to the foodish reader who is sagging under the
burden of informativeness and credibility.
