I like this book for several reasons. It is well organized with all the important information. It also has maps so you can carry it in your car and call ahead. The few restaurants/stores that I know of are exactly what the person who is trying to eat healthy or is on a special diet would be looking for. Thankyou! I will recommend it to all my clients.

A must for the car travelers who want good food on the road. It's so nice to pass up Mac Donalds etc. and find something we actually enjoy eating. Going an extra mile or two is certainly worth the little time it takes to get there.

For much of the past 30 years The Goldbecks books have shown me how to eat, what to eat and now at last they've also shown me where to eat. Hooray to D & N Goldbeck for Healthy Highways. Once again you've contributed to my healthy lifestyle. Your guide not only showed us where to eat, it has also taken us off the main roads to new adventures during our vast travels. Thank you, thank you, thank you

My wife and I travel a great deal and we are concerned about our cuisine. We have used Healthy Highways in NY, FL,CO, MD, VA and points inbetween. With the help of Healthy Highways we are confident that we will satisfy our concerns about our eating preferences.
We hope you find this guide as helpful as we have.

I have to travel a lot and always dreaded eating on the road. As a vegetarian, I have to hope for one palateble, meatless entree on each menu. Healthy Highways has rekindled my optimism about being on the road. They have given me a choice!

The Goldbeck's Supermarket Handbook bailed me out in the Seventies when I was doing more at-home cooking;now their Healthy Highways is keeping me on track when I'm on the road. I especially appreciate the driving directions since it doesn't do a lot of good to know about a place if you can't find it! So far I've checked out some of the North Carolina and Denver entries. They're right on. I've photocopied the Georgia pages to take with me on my next trip. Thanks, Nikki. Thanks, David.

A few summers ago I drove from Los Angeles to Jacksonhole, WY & I was on a very strict diet to only eat organic fruits & vegetables. I discovered that that was nearly impossible to do in this country. I was shocked!! The junk food mentallity has taken over most of this country. Last summer while I was in Minneapolis at Ecopolitan Restaurant I was shown this book. Since that miraculous day, I now determine how I travel by which is the best route to go depending on what Healthy Highways recommends. I drive all over the country to various art shows & was going online to see where the best vegetarian places are. Because of this book I don't need to & I've made it my quest to try & go to as many places in this book as possible. It also makes traveling so much more fun & I feel better physically because I am eating better. I have driven throughtout the midwest, southwest, northwest, south & this year I hope to hit the east coast. Buy this book, it will literally save your life but be sure to telephone ahead to make sure the information is correct as some of the places have changed & it is better to be sure rather than driving all the way there only to discover it has closed or moved.

This is a terrific guide for anyone looking for healthy food on the road. We tried Sublime in Ft. Lauderdale - it was fabulous. Tried Luna 61 in Red Hook, NY - OK but nothing spectacular! At least we knew where to find it! Nice to know we can locate a healthy health food store or restaurant anywhere in the US. Don't leave home without it!

The Goldbecks have done it again. KUDOS! From their first book, "The Supermarket Handbook", the Goldbecks have shown us for more than 20 years how to find the most nutritious and tasty foods where we live and shop. Ordinary vegetarians and health conscious non-vegetarians alike will be pleased to know where they can enjoy good organic cooking as they travel the country. You don't have to be a millionaire to eat well today, and the Goldbecks have done the hard work for us. Once again, they have stuck their necks out and been first! If you appreciate such a resource, get this book! I'm buying a second copy for my friends.

This book is perfect for roadtrips-- driving along, trying to plan where to stop for lunch in an unfamiliar part of the country. I'd love to see more options in the places that don't have anything (big stretches of some states!) even if they aren't quite as healthy as the ones in places with more options. We found a few problems with directions, but so far have been able to find every restaurant we looked for, even if we had to do some little detours from the given directions. Their website invites you to submit ideas for restaurants or corrections, but so far the items we submitted haven't been acted upon (6 months later).
