Jamie balances history, personal and national, in her exploration of the most American of terrible yet wonderful dishes. There are moments when I lose the plot and literally don’t know what we’re talking about but that’s for maybe a sentence. I was horrified and hungry in varying amounts at various times and I want to follow her journey (sans the emotional and digestive turmoil).

This might be my most unexpected 5 star read this year! I have been in a serious book slump, and it's been even worse with audiobooks, so for a... Hot dog... Memoir? To take me out of it is pretty fun.

Yeah, idk, it was good. Interesting. If you like "micro histories" you'll like this. If you're vegan you will either love this or hate it. You'll definitely like it if you like podcasts. Being narrated by the author makes the audiobook even better!

Re: content warnings - they are listed in the beginning of the book so that's helpful if I missed some here.
