What Caesar Did For My Salad

What Caesar Did For My Salad - Albert Jack

Amazon doesn't say anything about this book.. but the rest of the title gives away a bit more. The full title is "What Caesar did for my salad: Not to mention the Earl's Sandwich, Pavlova's meringue and other curious stories behind our favourite food"

This was an interesting read, but not one that I'd highly recommend unless you normally eat food from the UK. There was a lot of food that I hadn't heard of, and therefore wasn't curious to know what it was about. Jack has written a few books about where common phrases come from, so maybe I'll read one of those...
