Review

Milwaukee Shepherd Express, 7/19/16
In many ways, Eat It Up! is a recipe for returning to the kitchen economy of a century ago when stale bread became bread pudding and leftover bones were simmered in a pot of broth. Vinton's recipes include great ideas for using fruit peels, vegetable stalks, fat and whole animal dishes' that overlook nothing that is edible. Eat It Up! is a call to arms as well as a cookbook.”
