Summary
Janet and Greta Podleski, also known as The Looneyspoons Sisters, present Crazy Plates, a collection of low-fat recipes. Also includes fat facts (for example, a pound of body fat--representative of 3,500 calories--if shaped into a ball, would be the size… of a softball and equal four sticks of butter), "Trivial Tidbits" (baking soda used to be added to the water for boiling vegetables until it was discovered that it destroyed the veggies' vitamin C), "You Do the Math" (substituting Canadian bacon for the regular high-fat stuff once a week for a year will cut your fat intake by 1,196 grams), and a lot of corny humour ("Did you hear what happened to the peanut when he walked through the park? He was a salted"). These recipes can be prepared quickly and are aimed at the home cook with a family to feed. 1999.
