The Compendium of Nosh is all about the weird and wonderful things we put in our mouths. From A through to Z it gives wickedly funny, informative insights into foods, flavors, produce, etiquettes, and observances. You can discover the odd hobbies of J.H. Kellogg, the cornflake king, or the plutocratic origins of baked beans and why coffee and tea have caused wars, revolutions, and draconian punishments in every continent. The Compendium of Nosh is an extraordinary confection and a must-have for foodies.
