An Evaluation of the books structure

1001 Foods You Must Taste Before You Die is very smartly set out on so many levels. It is divided up into 9 sections:

  1. Fruit
  2. Vegetables
  3. Dairy
  4. Fish
  5. Meats
  6. Aromatics
  7. Grain
  8. Bakery
  9. Aromatics
I like the division of the sections and the way that it is all laid out. The photography is fabulous and the writing is fun. I have to say that I am disappointed that the foods listed under the sections are not listed alphabetically. I know that it is a little thing, but it is an annoying thing. I am not sure how I am going to sort them well, but I would have preferred that they were alphabetical.

The best part is the "Taste Ideas" at the bottom of each ingredient. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the ones for the ingredients that I have no ideas what they are. It'll be neat to see how our tasting compares to the tastes outlined in the book.
