Book Review from Greenville, North Carolina - The Daily Reflector

On August 28, Greenville's Daily Reflector printed an article on my book -- "Food Choice and Obesity in Black America: Creating a New Cultural Diet." The book review was conducted by Erica Plouffe Lazure.

Here are a few comments about my book:

The reviewer states, "In his book, "Food Choice and Obesity in Black America: Creating a New Cultural Diet," Eric J. Bailey examines social and cultural issues of food and obesity. "People want to make recipes exactly the same way it was years ago" Bailey said. "But you can use the same recipe your grandparents used and continue to keep that connection to them. You're honoring them by making the same dish but in a healthier way."
