  A rollicking exploration of the history and future of our favorite foods. 
  When we humans love foods, we love them a lot. In fact, we have often eaten them into extinction, whether it is the megafauna of the Paleolithic world or the passenger pigeon of the last century. In Lost Feast, food expert Lenore Newman sets out to look at the history of the foods we have loved to death and what that means for the culinary paths we choose for the future. Whether it's chasing down the luscious butter of local Icelandic cattle or looking at the impacts of modern industrialized agriculture on the range of food varieties we can put in our shopping carts, Newman's bright, intelligent gaze finds insight and humor at every turn. 
  Bracketing the chapters that look at the history of our relationship to specific foods, Lenore enlists her ecologist friend and fellow cook, Dan, in a series of "extinction dinners" designed to recreate meals of the past or to illustrate how we might be eating in the future. Part culinary romp, part environmental wake-up call, Lost Feast makes a critical contribution to our understanding of food security today. You will never look at what's on your plate in quite the same way again.

  Say Bonjour to Green Cuisine—it’s the new French way to be healthy, happy, and stylish, bien sûr! No one does food and lifestyle like the French! That’s why the French approach to clean, green eating adds a dash of flair—or a drizzle of decadence—to even the humblest of fruits, veggies, and legumes. In this cheerful, charming cookbook, Rebecca Leffler shows you how they do it. She introduces her “best friend foods” like sweet potatoes and chia, whirlwinds through an entire rainbow of juices and smoothies, and keeps the focus on fitness, food, and fun in equal measures. Globally inspired, but with lots of French accents, all 150 plant-based recipes are free of gluten, soy, and refined sugar. Rebecca organizes them the natural way: by season. Feed your body what it needs during . . .Spring: Beet Rawvioli with Faux-mage, White Asparagus Velouté, Le “Chic” CakeSummer: Salade Niçoise, Cabinet Curry, “Split”-Second Banana Ice CreamFall: Sobeautiful Soba Salad, Beauty Bourguignon, Pancrêpes, Apple Tarte TatinWinter: Totally Wild Stuffed Squash, Amaranth Caviar, Happy Hazelnut Quinoa Bowl.
