All Consuming: The instant Sunday Times bestseller by Ruby Tandoh
The star food writer asks, are our appetites are really our own?
Ruby Tandoh's sharp, insightful investigation into our evolving mass food cultures - the influences and drivers, weird excesses and absurdities - is a fascinating, sometimes shocking, eye-opener that is also brilliantly funny -- Claudia Roden, author of THE BOOK OF JEWISH FOOD
I loved this bookWitty and profound, informative and original, no one could write with more insight than Ruby on the question of our appetites, and what it is that we are really searching for when we google what to make for dinner -- Bee Wilson, author of CONSIDER THE FORK
A brilliant and engrossing investigation of what really shapes our desires when it comes to food, and a sharp riposte to culinary romanticism -- Fuchsia Dunlop, author of INVITATION TO A BANQUET
Brilliant. It's everything I want in a book about food culture. From a witty yet rigorous analysis of social media's impact on home cooks, through to restaurant criticism, food trends, the cookbook industry and more, this book is for anyone who loves food, and wants the curtain lifted on why we love the things we do -- Rukmini Iyer, author of THE ROASTING TIN
Completely dazzling in its scope, rigour, wit and savage, enlivening intellect. As a tour guide, Tandoh is brutally unsparing but infectiously passionate; forensically obsessive but self-aware -- Jimi Famurewa, author of SETTLERS and PICKY
Intimate and universal at once; carefully researched and reported but full of wit and opinion; of-the-moment and timeless -- Tom Lamont, author of GOING HOME
Her inventive angles of enquiry, her curiosity and comic genius for showing the absurd, cynical and tender ways our food culture has evolved are gripping -- Amy Key, author of ARRANGEMENTS IN BLUE
A tour de force. Ruby's extensive research and wonderful prose reveal everything you never knew about the evolution of current global food culture, in all its (often bonkers) forms -- Aggie MacKenzie, broadcaster and former head of Good Housekeeping Institute
Extraordinary. Ruby Tandoh is a genius and All Consuming is everything -- Bryan Washington, author of MEMORIAL
Praise for Eat Up -- - * - *
I read it greedily -- Nigella Lawson
Endlessly inspirational -- Nigel Slater
Really, really, really good -- Dolly Alderton
Brilliant. Buy it. You won't regret it -- Meera Sodha
A wonderful read, whatever you eat -- Reni Eddo-Lodge
