So, Now What Do I Eat? has helped make my transition to complete vegetarian a joy! I do not have time to cook, and therefore did not need another cookbook to add to my already crowded collection. If someone wants to cook, they can choose from hundreds of cookbooks available. This book is for people looking for convenience, better nutrition and great taste. I love this book.

I don't know what the reader from Studio City was expecting, but if they'd bothered to read the other reviews of this book online before ordering it, they'd have known that it is NOT a cookbook. This fabulous reference book saves me precious time and energy everyday. As far as becoming outdated, most companies don't change product lines that often, and I would guess that the author is savvy enough to update the book the way that other reference guides are updated from time to time.

I wish I could have seen this book in person before I bought it, but I couldn't find it in any bookstores so I bought it online. It wasn't what I was expecting. I read the reviews here and in Vegetarian Times so I thought it would be a sure thing. My impression about the book was that it was a cookbook based on convenience foods, but it turns out that it's just a directory of vegetarian convenience foods along with a short review of each. "Convenience foods" can be defined as pre-packaged foods that require little to no preparation. (Most items listed are only found in natural foods stores.) As new items are introduced and old ones discontinued, the book will be come out of date.There are several pages of coupons in the back which will help offset the price of the book, though they are largely for products found in natural foods stores.

So, Now What Do I Eat? has helped me to shop for healthy foods for my family. What makes this book even more special, is the invaluable list of vegetarian pet foods it contains. I had no idea that I could feed my cat a vegetarian diet, and now I not only am assured that I can, but I know what to feed him and where to buy it!

Gail Davis's book has a wealth of invaluable information for both the seasoned and novice vegetarian. It must have taken her hundreds and hundreds of hours to compile this impressive reference book! I take it with me everytime I go to the natural foods store, and with her help, I have just recently ordered some delicious desserts that I could not find in the store directly from the company itself--a first for me! And check out the coupons, they're worth the price of the book by themselves. A great buy.

I cannot believe that someone finally wrote a book with me, the new vegetarian in mind. Instead of being filled with undecipherable recipes, So, Now What Do I Eat? describes countless completely vegetarian foods that I can easily shop for, bring home and eat! Until I read this book, I was basically eating pasta or rice and beans. Now I've tasted the most amazing and delicious foods that I never would have known about if not for this book. This is a must read for anyone who loves to eat and wants to eat healthier! Thank you Ms. Davis.
