Romaine wasn't built in a day : the delightful history of food language / Judith Tschann ; illustrations by Peter Tschann-Grimm.

Tschann, Judith, (author.).

Summary:

"Food and words--we rely on both to sustain our daily lives. We begin each morning hungry for nourishment and conversation, and our happiest moments and fondest memories are often filled with ample servings of both. Food historian Judith Tschann celebrates this glorious intersection of linguistic and culinary affinities with Romaine Wasn't Build in a Day, a decadent romp through the history of food words"-- Provided by publisher.
