Title: I grew up with a mother who dieted
Review: Although I don't know that my mother ever had these cards, I know she was a member of weight-watchers from way back, and I just wish she was around to see this book - she'd find it as hilarious as I do. I loved the commentary. There are some reviewer for this book that said that the humor was low-brow; but to be honest, their reviews are somewhat coarse and harsh. Some of them are are offended by the fun being poked at the past. This is one of a many books out now that lets us have fun with the past.And, yes, someone will make fun of things we do now 30 years from now. I'll buy those books, too. If you can't laugh at yourself, then you need to reexamine the life you're living and try not to take things too seriously! If you have a mom who may have made any of these recipes way back then, buy this book for them as a stocking stuffer. They'll probably enjoy it.
