    Food Rules by Bill Haduch, il. by Rick Stromoski
    Mom:Eat your spinach, Howie. It'll Put color in your cheeks.
    Howie: But Mom, who wants green cheeks?
    Want proof that you can't digest fiber? Swallow a kernel of corn. Corn is covered in fiber, so it'll come out intact in your feces(yuck).
    The food your body(actually your hypothalamus) really wants in chyme, a watery green substance your body makes with the digestable part of the food you eat.
    This book is aimed at kids under twelve, features jokes in the margins and in the text, and has lots of gross facts to interest... well, to interest anyone who likes gross facts. It packs information on how humans deal with food into an almost- slapstick routine.
    Happy reading.
