1 Lonely Planet could do better
Since I've relied on Lonely Planet books to travel around Mexico and South America, I thought this book would give me a real "inside" look at the food of Mexico. I was definitely disappointed. It doesn't contain any information that I didn't already know from traveling in Mexico and reading Mexican cookbooks. In fact some of the information it did give was wrong - for instance, Salsa Verde is not made with Green Tomatoes - It's made with Tomatillos -a totally different fruit.

2 A splendid introduction to Mexican food, travel & history.
Lonely Planet World Food Mexico is the first guide to provide an introduction to Mexican travel and history through a focus on the food and drink of Mexican regions, pairing a culinary dictionary and focus on regional specialties with travel advice. The combination places this pocket tote somewhere between travel and cook book, but will prove especially delightful to food fans - and with its useful built-in dictionary and phrase book, essential to independent travelers.

Useful phrases for drunken apologies and much more, does not do justice to the colorful books in the new series, World Food, from the Lonely Planet guidebook people. These are pocket-size books, brimming with food history, folkways, the inside scoop on menu deciphering, food markets, and restaurants as well as excellent overviews of the culture behind the cuisine of each country visited. Couch Potato-down with the 11-book series at home, or toss the one on Mexico in your pack and go find the hottest donitas in Mexico City.

Wonder is the feeling of a philosopher, and philosophy begins in wonder.

		-- Socrates, quoting Plato

	[Huh?  That's like Johnson quoting Boswell]





A rope lying over the top of a fence is the same length on each side.  It

weighs one third of a pound per foot.  On one end hangs a monkey holding a

banana, and on the other end a weight equal to the weight of the monkey.

The banana weighs two ounces per inch.  The rope is as long (in feet) as

the age of the monkey (in years), and the weight of the monkey (in ounces)

is the same as the age of the monkey's mother.  The combined age of the

monkey and its mother is thirty years.  One half of the weight of the monkey,

plus the weight of the banana, is one forth as much as the weight of the

weight and the weight of the rope.  The monkey's mother is half as old as

the monkey will be when it is three times as old as its mother was when she

she was half as old as the monkey will be when when it is as old as its mother

will be when she is four times as old as the monkey was when it was twice

as its mother was when she was one third as old as the monkey was when it

was old as is mother was when she was three times as old as the monkey was

when it was one fourth as old as it is now.  How long is the banana?
