Nikki & David Goldbecks’ pioneering books have had a powerful influence on the way America eats for more than three decades. Best known for their 1970s bestseller 'The Supermarket Handbook,' and their widely acclaimed 'American Wholefoods Cuisine,' the Goldbecks are also coauthors of eight other food-related books including 'The Good Breakfast Book,' 'The Healthiest Diet in the World,' and 'Eat Well The YoChee Way.'

'Healthy Highways' is in keeping with the Goldbecks’ 1970s seminal bestseller, "The Supermarket Handbook." There the Goldbecks identified unrecognized healthy supermarket foods. In a similar manner, 'Healthy Highways' connects people with better road food options they might not be aware of.
