5 out of 5 stars A must, must have!   July 25, 2009

This is a seriously good guide for anyone who wants to know when and where to cut some calories. What I liked most about it was the fact that it shows you exactly which foods to choose; it doesn't just flippantly mention some obsecure thing and forget to tell you how to make the best choices. Also, for the price, this is a great investment. Don't you want to know what would be the better choice whenever you eat fast food and, let's be honest, we all eat fast food occassionaly--sometimes there's no way to avoid it, such as when you travel. But with this, you are armed and ready to make much better choices concering your diet. It is a must, must have! I'd also say that Goodbye, Fatty! Hello, Skinny! How I Lost Weight And Still Ate The Foods I Loved-Without Dieting is another good one that's also helped me in this area.


5 out of 5 stars Lot of Helpful Info   August 20, 2009

"Eat This and Not That" is a guide to eating healthier and reducing caloric intake for those who eat out and eat primarily at fast food restaurants in our "drive-thru society." One possible solution to additionally add is: do *not* eat at fast food restaurants. With these words of wisdom, the problem is solved.

However....with our brief lunch break and long commutes in our age of being in hurry and having to do more with less time, many of us eat fast fast food out of convenience. We honestly may not want to eat this stuff, but we do. In "Eat this not that" there is ample breakdown of caloric amounts. Buy having this information you can literally save thousands of calories a day. A lot of the caloric, sodium, sugar, and fat gram information is included and quite surprising. The focus is on fast food and supermarket junk food, but this is a health book, and it's focus is counting calories. Hydrogenated oils, and fructose corn syrups are also included and very important for people to be aware of.

Many fast food choices that seem to be "healthier" or have less calories are often far worse than we think. Fast food has high caloric density, meaning a small item can have massive amounts of calories, fat, and sodium. Sodium is the hidden killer in fast food and restaurant foods. When we eat meals containing dangerous levels of sodium we cannot even taste it and tell it's loaded with salt. This book suggests swapping the worst choices for better choices.

Some readers wanted content on Protein and minerals in these fast foods. Folks, if you feel you need to know this info - don't eat fast food. The macros of Protein/Carb/Fat ratios are negligible. Don't stand on a pair of empty train tracks in the country-side on the lookout for low flying airplanes.

Small sweet tooth snack foods in the supermarket, and a seemingly healthier option in a restaurant can add thousands of calories to you in only a single day.

My personal favorite in my fast food days was the Sausage McMuffin with Egg at the early morning drive-thru on the way to work. That little tasty treat has 450 calories, 50% of my daily fat intake, 87% of my daily cholesterol limit, and 39% of my daily sodium limit. And this is in, just one.

In this book the chapters are categorized very well: Snack food, frozen foods, salads, sushi, additives, drive-thru, pizzas, sandwhiches, alcoholic beverages, and chapters focusing on blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar, among others. The "Foods For Kids" chapter is really important for those with kids.

"Eat this not that" by David Zinczenko packs a lot of info that you can access in seconds. It's not a "health" or "diet" book, but it is an informative book on how you can be healthier.

This book is a revelation. It gave me a new perspective on eating. So many things on the market that are advertised as healthy, in reality are not. With this book I am now able to make better choices. I know exactly what to look for before I select it. As a result I am now reading food labels to keep my sugars and bad fats low while increasing my fiber, protein and good fat.

Very informative and shocking. Didn't realize some of the so-called healthy food is actually not that healthy.

I have several of these books, and they are very well organized and easy to understand. Would recommend any of these for handy references, and a good source of information and a great tool in making better food choices.

Everone who eats out alot should have this book.Its a real eye openner.You will be amazed of the foods that are bad for you,and the one's that are good.
Salads are the worst at some of the fast food chains,and the Burgar King Whooper is over 1400 calories.
This book names the best and worst Restaurants,and the best foods to order when you eat there.I can't get enough of this book,even though some reviewers are saying if you bought the first one,don't bother with the rest of the collection.
