Query: Don&#65533;t buy this book if you&#65533;re a Foodie!

Unless you're a complete novice you'll be disappointed with this book, I was. How do you know if you're a foodie? Well if you already knew that 1) lemon juice can be used to keep certain vegetables, such as artichokes from rusting 2) that short grain rice is sticky and long grain rice is fluffy 3) that starches, such as corn starch, can be used for thickening, you're a foodie. I guess I expected more science explained but most of what I discovered was very basic. That's not to say that I didn't learn anything, I did, but most of the info I had already gleaned from other sources such as Food TV. Plus as stated in an earlier review, the book lacks a bibliography so even if you wanted to learn more about a certain subject you can't find it easily.
