Review:
"This second edition of the Junior Worldmark Encyclopedia of Foods and Recipes of the World features full-colored photos and has expanded to be more comprehensive and representative of the world's culture groups...Readers will find that this is more than just a cookbook...This is a strong choice, especially appealing for smaller libraries that struggle to flesh out their collections without saddling themselves with rarely circulating titles for every possible country."
