Feast along with America’s favorite food comedian, bestselling author, and male supermodel Jim Gaffigan as he digs into his specialty: stuffing his face. Food: A Love Story is an in-depth, thoroughly uninformed look at everything from health food to things that people actually enjoy eating.

Jim Gaffigan books are boring. I read two pages and almost fell asleep. And isn't he the hot pocket guy or some thing like that last time I checked he was but if you don't belive me look it up for your self. And just like what he said in the begging of the other book he made : did he get a ghostwriter or some thing to writer his book. If he did he would have done a better job than the ghostwriter becuase the ghostwriter did a boring job.

It's a little repetitive, but Jim Gaffigan is hilarious and totally worth the read. I started the book late last week and finished up today, it got me through a really long crummy week at work. I was reading it one night at Panera Bread while having some dinner and found myself laughing out loud with people staring at me. Pick it up if you want a quick amusing funny read.

There are other reviews saying the book is recycled material from his stand up; I don't want this to be another review saying that. Well, we can't always get what we want, but if you need something amusing you can get this book. Even if it is true, and it is, and the book is recycled material, and it is, it's still funny.
