"Food historian Civitello tells a complicated and sordid tale of corporate mischief and government corruption that will surprise many readers. Baking powder may now seem an unremarkable item found in the baking aisle at the grocery, but its rise (pun intended) in the early nineteenth century transformed how Americans cooked and ate."-Book List
