Customer Reviews

A highly recommended read for the interested connoisseur

Sometimes ignorance is bliss, especially when the main ingredient of one's delicious meal is termites. "I Should Have Stayed Home: Tantalizing Tales of Extreme Cuisine" is a look at world cuisine and some of its less attractive attributes. The fine dishes discussed (such as ram testicles), while tasty, offer much to think twice about. Endlessly fascinating and oddly intriguing, "I Should Have Stayed Home" is a highly recommended read for the interested connoisseur.
