Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs by Jamie Loftus

funny informative fast-paced

5.0

Easily the funniest book I read this year. It's timely and humourous. I think she mixes the hellscape politics of the COVID pandemic (2021) in the USA with hotdogs and relationship struggles well. Most of the book is about taste testing hotdogs which is absolutely crowd pleasing. However some of it is societal critique. So, if you're adverse to a political commentary as a side to your hotdog, might want to avoid this book. But if you felt frustrated with the individualistic response the US had to the pandemic, you may appreciate the quips about the failure of our society to meet the needs of our community at a hard time.
