"The Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook," first published in 1930, has been one of America's most popular culinary guides for seventy-five years, with more than 37 million copies sold. It usually identifiable by the popular red plaid cover, this brand new 12th edition is different - its plaid is PINK! The pink color stands for Breast Cancer Awareness. Please note - the title is different also, "New Cook Book, Limited Edition 'Pink Plaid:' For Breast Cancer Awareness." The high quality of the 1200 recipes, new ones and old favorites too, plus glossary, ingredient substitutions, cooking charts, diagrams, preparation and storage information, is the same, however, as the caliber of your trusted old red plaid version. There are 700 beautiful photographs illustrating finished dishes and fresh products. When the more-than-75-year-old cooking bible, Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, pays homage to breast cancer research, it's definitely become a mainstream cause. In addition to the 1,200 recipes and 700 color photographs, on top of the detailed information and illustrated charts that the publication's editors are known for, the newest feature of this limited-edition guide is its "pink plaid" section devoted to directions on how to eat for life--that is, instructions on miracle foods, like antioxidants, and the best low-fat, health-filled recipes to tempt anyone's taste buds, from a southwestern spinach omelet to reduced-calorie creamy mocha custards. Arrayed in a ready-to-use ringed binder, this thirteenth edition stands rightfully as a cooking reference book, to have and to hold. Barbara Jacobs
