5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous, July 1, 2002
This review is from: Handbook of Meat Product Technology (Hardcover)
An admirably thorough guide to the tools of the production-line meat processing trade. The superb colour photographs particularly made it a perfect gift for my 15 year old daughter who is showing alarming signs of not becoming vegetarian.
