In fact, almost all of my favorite books as a kid were food centered. Berenstain Bears, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Little Rabbit's Loose Tooth. At least I'm not the only one fixated on fictional food.

I do remember reading a lot of historical fiction and that one section in particular, a lengthy section about the potato famine of Ireland, went on for so long - literally 15 pages or so, strictly about all the many ways potatoes were prepared and enjoyed and missed that all I wanted to eat for days were potatoes, naturally! I loved them plain, with butter and Mrs. Dash Original. That became my staple for years as a teenager : ) The same thing happened to me with books and food, though I don’t have the specifics.
