Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The little square burger devotees call "sliders." The accidental invention of the hot fudge sundae. The much-debated truth behind the name "hot dog." AMERICAN EATS is a fun, fascinating, feature-length tour that dishes up the truth behind the dishes.From pizza to the hoagie (or grinder or hero) some of the most characteristically American foods have their origins abroad. But others are strictly homegrown, the product of fads, trends or good, old-fashioned screw-ups that turn out well in the end (the chocolate chip cookie is one such delicious mistake). By going into some of the world?s most famous kitchens and talking with people like the inventor of the Big Mac, a San Francisco Chinatown food guide and the founder of Pizza Hut, the delectable story of AMERICAN EATS comes alive.Tuck in the bib and pull up a chair for a feast of Americana.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great show!, September 7, 2008
Everytime this was aired on the History I would watch it. Now that I am teaching a food and nutrition class at a middle school, I had to get a copy for my class. It is very interesting and entertaining for people of all ages.
