Definition
A "food book" is any book which is centered around food and/or drinks. It could be a cookbook, a food biography or memoir, a novel in which food plays a major role, or a book of nonfiction focused on a specific food, wine, chef, or restaurant.
Decide how many books, and pick your reading level.
- Short-Order Cook: 1 to 3 books ✓ (my choice)
- Pastry Chef: 4 to 8 books
- Sous-Chef: 9 to 13 books
- Chef de Cuisine: 14 to 18
- Cordon-Bleu Chef: more than 19
Blog about each book you read.
Post the link to your review under the book's category:
- cookbook
- memoir/biography
- fiction
- nonfiction
- challenge wrap-up post

List of food books I've read in 2015

2.
List of other food books I intend to read
1. Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions ~ by Kate Lorig, Halsted Holman, David Sobel, Diana Laurent, Virginia González, and Marian Minor (4th ed), 2012, health
2. Unprocessed: My City-Dwelling Year of Reclaiming Real Food ~ by Megan Kimble, 2015, health
3. Voices of the Food Revolution: You Can Heal Your Body and Your World — with Food! ~ by John Robbins and Ocean Robbins, 2013, health
I chose "
Short-Order Cook: 1 to 3 books" as my category because I'm starting 3/4 of the way through the year. Maybe I'll be promoted to Pastry Chef (the next level) before the end of the year, but I'm not pushing myself.
