You will be amazed at the large number of words for FOOD in the English language which actually mean something else, and this book is packed with them. Most of them are drawn from the universe of SLANG, COLLOQUIALISMS, and JARGON, and: will give you a better appreciation and understanding of our language; will help you build and enrich your vocabulary; will stimulate your interest in language and reading; will add color and variety to your conversation and personal speech; will invigorate your curiosity about unusual words and phrases. While aimed primarily at Middle-Schoolers and Teenagers, word detectives of all ages will also enjoy what is found behind the door of SLANGUAGE, and this book opens that door quite a bit!!!
