I find myself somewhat inexplicably drawn to books about food in a graphical context. I say 'somewhat' because I love food and I love graphics, so this unlikely hybrid is a logical attraction. Case in point, Marti Guixe's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Mart%C3%AD-Guix%C3%A9-Designing-Jeffrey-Swartz/dp/8875702497">Food Designing</a> an expression of food in a context a designer would appreciate.

Images of squaring potatoes, molecular structures made from olives and toothpicks and decorating cakes with graphic representations of their contents are just a few of the gems this book contains. I'm inspired, intrigued and peckish all at the same time. Definitely adding this to my wishlist.
