According to PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine) here are the top five worst cookbooks of 2011:
| Jamie Oliver’s Meals in Minutes | One serving of the Meatball Sandwich contains more fat than a Big Mac and more than double the calories, cholesterol, sodium, and saturated fat. |
| Guy Fieri Food | Jambalaya Sandwich contains bacon, smoked sausage, and Andouille sausage; such processed meats raise colon cancer risk. |
| Paula Deen’s Southern Cooking Bible | One serving of Hot Buffalo Wings (three wings) contains 910 calories and 85 grams of fat; meat-heavy diets raise obesity risk. |
| The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook | More than 50 pages of recipes featuring grilled meat, which increases cancer risk. |
| The Neelys’ Celebration Cookbook | Bourbon Bread Pudding is saturated with butter, half-and-half, and whole milk; high-fat diets increase heart-disease risk. |

I had to laugh that Jamie Oliver made it to the top especially because he is head of Food Revolution in the US. Crazy!!
That is crazy! I never would have thought he'd be on that list at all! I saw his show last week and some of the food he made was not even close to healthy! But it looked delicious! hehe
ReplyDeletePaula Deans stuff will always be on that list. Her food is COMFORT food.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that!
