Book Description

October 1, 2008
Historically, a love of cooking has been left to those considered far from cool: suburbanite Betty Crockers toiling over a hot stove. But the new youth-culture sensibility has taken over, merging the axiom “You are what you eat” with its updated mantra “You are who you listen to.” Lost in the Supermarket—yes, named for the 1979 hit by The Clash—is a creative compendium of recipes that reclaims the kitchen for the hip crowd. At once a meditation on the connection between food and music and a great culinary resource, this cookbook is full of the favorite recipes of some of indie rock’s elite. In chapters on both daily dishes and special event grub, contributions from such indie notables as Animal Collective, Black Dice, Sunset Rubdown, and Country Teasers are included, giving readers plenty to groove on, whether they’re in it for the tunes or the tastes or both.

5.0 out of 5 stars Q: Will these recipes make my dinner parties cool??? A: Yes!, September 10, 2008
By 
R. Faris (Berkeley, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Lost in the Supermarket: An Indie Rock Cookbook (Paperback)
This cookbook is the best thing to happen to foodie culture since Julia Child was outed as a spy. The authors have: a) great taste in music; and b) great taste in taste. Recognizing that the longstanding punk rock tradition of DIY did not stop at the kitchen door (or the motel dinette microwave), the authors have culled great recipes from great rock bands on the rise. Most are healthy, many are family traditions, and all will make you feel a little more connected to your favorite band.

The food network should stop with the soap operatics and start rockin' with Kay & Lynn Owens.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun cookbook to own, September 14, 2008
By 
Sheila Arel Farr (Morristown, Vermont) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lost in the Supermarket: An Indie Rock Cookbook (Paperback)
This was a unique, fun read with some great recipes. The book has a recipe for an awesome chocolate zucchini cake. Even a recipe for a Spicey Cold Celery, YUM. This would be a great gift idea for all those hard to buy for people on your list.
