Cook the Book: 'Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating'
I'm like a lot of people here who've significantly reduced the amount of meat he eats, partly due to Bittman's writing.

Ever seen Stephen Chow's "The God of Cookery?"
Top Ten Worst Halloween 'Candies'
I've received dinner mints before.
Cook the Book: 'Giada's Kitchen'
Probably a bolognese, but anything with a good olive oil and bits of tomato will do.
Or just the olive oil.
Anybody a Freegan?
The freegans in NYC host regular tours of their sites (freegan.info) if anyone's curious enough.
Cook the Book: 'The Shun Lee Cookbook'
I'm fine with a roast pork noodle soup bowl, with hearty broth and nicely charred pork. And slightly chewy noodles, of course.
Cook the Book: Bobby Flay's Grill It!
It's got to be Alton Brown. Not so much for his food choices, but for chemistry lecture that's sure to go with it. Plus all those goofy, distracting props and sock puppets.
We Approve of Bloomberg's Hypothetical Last Breakfast
Fluffy scrambled eggs on good crispy toast that's quickly absorbing too much butter.
If not that, I'd dig up the cold pizza, too.
Cook the Book: 'The Food Life'
My first encounter with a Wegmans was when I went to school in upstate New York. It was pretty interesting just to roam the aisles, but tough to shop as a no-income college kid.
Still, I stick to Chinese markets in Chinatown NYC.
Top Ten Worst Halloween 'Candies'
I disagree about a lot of the candy items mentioned here.
I, for one, LOVE the fun-sized (or mini, if you prefer) candies. It's a tiny bit of something insanely tasty, enough to give pleasure without causing tummy pains. When I was a young'un and I went trick-or-treating, one house gave out mini Clark bars. Yum-o-delish! I polished those off first.
I think the chewy peanut butter kisses taste absolutely divine.
Candy corn, I think is plenty of tasty, as are the candy pumpkins made of candy-corn base. Think little dollops of hardened cake-frosting.
As for apples and raisins, those I didn't mind in the least.
However, some items, I do agree about.
Toothbrushes -- a boring reminder
Religious pamphlets -- disappointing and WEIRD to boot.
Packages of "normal" food -- oh, for crying in Manhattan, what kid wants to receive a can of baked beans or a box of oat bran in his little plastic jack-o-lantern.
One time I received cough drops -- and not the Ludens or Pine Bros or Smith Bros or F&Fs, which are tasty and could pass as hard candy (as can the Ricolas). These were nasty little green pellets that were -- and tasted like -- MEDICATION. Like I said, for crying in Manhattan! For crying in Manhattan, Chicago, and San Francisco
Oh well. At least I didn't get a ROCK
Top Ten Worst Halloween 'Candies'
If I didn't live in an apartment building with no kids in it I'd be giving out and full sized candy bar AND a red bull to every kid. HAHAHA!!! HALLOWEEN IS FOR KIDS! SUCK IT PARENTS!
