Is there a negative or positive tone to this product review? === Title: The Pyramid Goes Gourmet Review: This book's selling point for me is its emphasis on whole foods. It is great for anyone who is trying to de-emphasize meat in their diets and build up the grains, fruits and vegetables. The recipes are fairly easy to follow--a beginner might be left guessing how big a "medium" zucchini really is, but technique is explained well. The ingredient list is within reach of most supermarkets. The recipes themselves are original and come out looking like the pictures. Many are naturally low-fat and those that are not use the healthiest fats when called for. Butter is scarcely used and I don't think cream is mentioned anywhere. I enjoy reading and cooking from this. My only criticism is negligible: for far-sighted people, even those assisted with monovision contacts or bifocals, the type in which ingredient quantities are set, particularly the fractions, is difficult to read. Answer:
(A).
Positive

Is there a negative or positive tone to this product review? === Title: Nothing like marshmallow cream Review: I really rate this item at less than zero, but was forced to give it one star. It tasted awful and had a slimy texture. At least I only had to buy one container. Answer:
(A).
Negative

Is there a negative or positive tone to this product review? === Title: Stephen King's Theory of Marriage Review: Stephen King's new story, "LT's Theory of Pets," is really less about pets than about the fragility of marriage. It's a theme that King seems to be fond of (especially in more recent years). Unfortunately, at least in this instance, King doesn't have anything to say on the topic that particularly revelatory. He goes to some trouble to evoke the emotions associated with a breakup, but there's nothing really substantial here about the internal dynamics of the relationship. In a way, this story puts me in mind of another one by King about the marriage state, "Lunch at the Gotham Cafe" (1995). While "Cafe" suffers from some of the same problems as "Pets," at least "Cafe" was more entertaining, if only in a typically King-like gruesome manner. ("Cafe" won the 1995 Stoker award for Superior Achievement in Long Fiction, and was nominated for the 1996 Locus for Best Novelette.) Answer:
(A).
