⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This book was just so fascinating (and depressing) to me. The author takes us on a tour of a variety of endangered foods from around the world. The histories of each food. Stories of our ancestors, and of the people who are trying to keep these foods from going extinct. The book is divided into several chapters (meat, fruits, cheese, alcohol, etc), and the author has a very engaging voice throughout. If you are a foodie, you'll love this book. If you are a history buff, you'll love this book. Definitely my favorite non-fiction book I have read this year.
