Customer Reviews

Fun and interesting

It is amazing how Todd Wilbur has put together these fun and funny recipes!Love the book and the service was super fast!

Another Winner!

Another TSR winner! I found many items listed in this book that are no longer being sold, or manufactured, or just not available in this area. It was great to find recipes for foods that I can't get any longer! Every recipe turns out too, which is not easy to say about every single cookbook out there.

glad there is a low fat version

the top secret recipe concept is great. I like that I can *clone* my favorite recipes at home...for much less cost. The traditional top secret recipes are not usually low fat. The prime consideration is taste. While this is a good thing, it makes it hard to incorporate them into a diet program.With this version it is possible. In general I find the top secret recipes a bit heavy on ingredients... which can be a bit of a pain during prep and also the cost of expanding your panty. But to be able to make some favorites at home, at a fraction of the cost and now...low fat. Its a great alternative!

This is One of the Best Recipe Books Available Anywhere

As editor of Low-Fat-Recipes.com, I can affirm this is the best cook book you can imagine for the junk food addict. Not only will you reduce the calories but it will fatten your pocketbook as you duplicate for pennies what costs dollars in these fast food restaurants. Read and enjoy and watch the pounds drop away while enjoying the foods you have been addicted to consuming.

control what goes into your food - and it still tastes great

the best thing about this book (aside from the fact that the recipes taste just like the real thing) is that YOU control what goes into the food, not someone in a (perhaps) dirty restaraunt kitchen, or in a factory where they infuse food with chemicals and preservatives. all of your favorite recipes are in here - low fat AND yummy. i recommend it to anyone who dines out a lot but wants to cut back on their food bills (or their waistlines!)
