Stars: 1
Review by: MandyApgar
Holy mother of God this was dull. The book was written by a comedian (and best seller through his former book, Dad is Fat) with the goal of examining his love of food - especially compared to the lifestyle of his slimmer, trendier wife. He accomplishes the triple threat of not only being unfunny, but also dull and irritating at the same time. A few moments, yes, but mostly things along the line of ranting how much he hates fish and then saying things along the lines of "boy they taste bad, when have you had a fish that was good, when I was performing stand up (which he brings up. A. Lot.) in X city people ate fish..." It was mostly observational, but when the person observing things is a bit touched then it isn't very funny. Plus he will frequently provide photos of himself and his family that are grainy enough to be Polaroids from the FDR administration.
