What happens when indie bands hit the road They get hungry!

Food writer Kara Zuaro knows a lot of musicians, and she's found they all share one obsession (besides music, of course): eating. Whether theyre on the tour bus reminiscing about meals past or at home in their own kitchens, theyve all got favorite recipes -- and theyre willing to share. This uniquely irresistible cookbook collects contributions from more than 100 artists, including indie icons like the Violent Femmes, Belle & Sebastian, and They Might Be Giants; current favorites like Franz Ferdinand and My Morning Jacket; and up-and-coming acts like Catfish Haven and Voxtrot.

Some recipes are inspired by a particular song in the band's repertoire, others are taken from real-life experience. Each one bears the often quirky stamp of its source -- while these are thoroughly tested, cook-from-me recipes, Zuaro has left the musicians wording and instructions intact, which makes for a collection that's as much fun to read as it is to use. For example, from Devendra Banhart's contribution:

RIGHT ON!!!!!!
here is my favorite recipe for:
AFRICANAS RICAS!
you shall require!
many bananas!
a box of graham crackers!!!
two eggs!!!
SOUR CREAM!!
HONEY!

You get the idea. Part indie music discovery guide, part foodie fantasy, and all fun, I Like Food, Food Tastes Good is a cookbook for anyone whose iPod is always on.

    This book includes a comprehensive selection of vegetarian, flexitarian, vegan, and other dishes. I love the selection an creativity of recipes. This is defiantly a good buy if you love food just as much as music.

    Also, seller was prompt and honest.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Functional like a cookbook, entertaining like a 'zine
    Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2007
    Format: Paperback
    Although I have to confess that I've only made one recipe in this book since I got it several months back, its an incredibly entertaining read. Kara Zuaro is a really great writer and has clearly done her homework on the bands she includes here. The beauty of this collection is that it can be functional if you want it to be, but purely entertaining if you're not one that spends alot of time in the kitchen. It unfolds much like a series of shortstories or band interviews, allowing the reader a glimpse into any artist's idiosyncratic eating habits - usually much more interesting conversation than that of a band's obscure influences. On the other hand, if indie rock's not your bag, this would also fit nicely on the bookshelf next to your other treasured culinary guides.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Quirky cookbook that's worth checking out
    Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2007
    Format: Paperback
    "I Like Food, Food Tastes Good: In the Kitchen with your Favorite Bands" is an indie-rock cookbook that features recipes from groups like the Violent Femmes, They Might Be Giants, Calexico and Death Cab For Cutie. (These four bands also happen to be the only contributors I'd heard of, but people much cooler than I will likely recognize the other musicians.) The 105 recipes in this book are varied and range from "Big Apple Quiche Muffins" in the "Breakfast" chapter to "Wild Boar Ragu" in the "Main Courses for Carnivores" chapter. I've had the book for a little over two weeks and have made an adapted version of the <a href="[...]">"Asian Stir-Fry for Vegetarians Who Hate Vegetables,"</a> the oatmeal cake pictured above, a pear and goat cheese panini, and eggplant parmesan, which I baked instead of frying as the recipe recommends. I was pleased with how these meals turned out and was especially grateful for their "easy on the effort" approach. Other recipes range from down-home comfort food like mac and cheese, to playfully titled drinks like "Patriot Act Mojitos," made with fresh mint, sparkling water, Cuban rum and sugar, among other things. For the health-conscious there are several 'healthy alternative' recipes, for instance, cookies made with powdered green tea and vegan chocolate chip cookies. And for the adventurous, the "Strawberry Pop Cake," which is made with strawberry soda and Jell-O, promises an interesting afternoon in the kitchen. Overall this is a good little cookbook with recipes that can be made when you're short on time and that can easily be modified to suit your tastes. It also begins to answer the question: What do musicians eat when they're on the road?

    There are two things about this book that I wasn't too thrilled about. First, a handful of recipes are plagued by some of the worst writing I have ever seen - ever. I understand that the musicians who wrote them are artists and infinitely more hip than I will ever be, but I ask you, who publishes instructions like this: "...add a little bit of cream!! And STIRRRRRR!!!!... SIR LAWRENCE OF ARABIA!... THEN, put it on the frying pan!!!! let it get GOLDEN!!!" I mean, seriously, either this guy was on something or the recipe is so out-of-this-world that <a href="[...]" target="blank">T. E. Lawrence</a> came back from the dead to try it. (That's the only way I could get my head round the Arabia connection.) Thankfully recipes like this are few and far between, and the one quoted above, for "Africanitas Ricas," was the worst offender. The only other thing I wasn't too keen on was the inclusion of a recipe for a bologna sandwich, but if part of this book's purpose is bringing the artists to the people then I suppose it isn't so bad. "Rock can get complicated," the text reads, "but this sandwich isn't. Feed to those who are living the dream." I can dig that.

    In addition to the aforementioned chapters, sections include: "Soups, Sides and Starters," "Sandwiches," "Main Courses for Vegetarians," "Drinks" and "Desserts." Whatever your musical tastes this book has something for everyone and is worth checking out. And if you happen to be an indie-music lover? All the better.

    5.0 out of 5 stars This Cookbook Rocks
    Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2007
    Format: Paperback
    This is a rare cookbook, one a music nut and food fan can sit down wtih on the couch and read page by page. Some of the recipes will make you want to cook. Others will make you want to go on the net and download some new music from an artists you've never heard of. Some recipes are as bizarre as the characters that contributed them. Some are braindead, again not a suprise. Most are mouthwatering and solid, and complimented by funny and thoughtful bios to create a cookbook more Lollapalooza than Racheal Ray.

    Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2007

    This cookbook has something for everyone. It combines the best aspects of cookbooks and album liner notes, with the emphasis on wide-ranging foods for every occasion, with recipes easy enough for me, challenging enough for my auntie, and tasty enough for anyone you care to cook for. Above all, it's very broad, both in the breadth of musicians and the types of food represented. I wish it had an accompanying CD, but that's what iTunes is for. Buy it for me for christmas! Yummy!
