What Others Say
This is the best book for quanity cooking
Food for Fifty (12th Edition) Food For 50 can't be beat. I am a merchant seeman and have owned several editions of Food for 50. I have been using them for about 35
Years on ship. I would be like a missing hand without it. I have used it even today on my job. I am waiting for it to come out on Kindle to buy another one to cut out all the weight. I have seen no match anywhere and at home I collect cookbooks. There I have over a hundred cookbooks. Again Food For 50 can't be beat.

Foof for Fifty Cookbook
Food for Fifty (12th Edition)Excellent book great recipes and helpful tips throughout the book
I liked it
I had to buy Food for Fifty (12th Edition) for my Quantity Foods course as a part of my Dietetics major. I actually liked the book, and I am going to keep it for later use. I thought the book was organized very well. Some of the charts in Chapter 2 and 5 that we used quite often were a little hard to find (because there are so many!).
It also presented a good overview of things you wouldn't think would be in the book, such as the school lunch program, etc.
I liked it!
Wow!!! A must have for all chefs
I had seen Food for Fifty (12th Edition) at a friends business and thought it was good. Since I have ordered and received it I have had the chance to really review the contents and find it one book that I can use daily. The CD rom is also fantastic in the number of recipes it contains. One nice feature is that you can size the recipes to what you need. Another great plus. Well worth the money. Tom Elliott, CEC
