Toast: Homage to a Superfood (Hardback)

Publisher and industry reviews

Jacket review

How to crack a safe, escape from Alcatraz, get the girl and live the action hero's life. This handbook comes from the creators of The Worst Case Scenario Handbook. The book of the internet phenomenon www.framley.co.uk - a spoof of a local newspaper which quickly became a favourite when it appeared online last year.

UK Kirkus review

This is a concise and light-hearted look at a food staple loved by generations of Britons. Parker supplies a history of toast, a look at the folklore surrounding it and finally some recipes, including the classic beans and cheese on toast but also some more unusual suggestions such as crushed black pepper on toast and cinnamon toast. Handsomely illustrated throughout, the book contains much useless but surprisingly interesting information such as the date the first toaster was invented (1893), the advantages and disadvantages of grills and the reason the author loathes sandwich toasters. An ideal present for any toast fanatics of your acquaintance (Kirkus UK)
