Low cal tips like "Lay off fried people" make "You Are Who You Eat" the ideal weight loss guide for anyone - cannibal and civilian alike - who has trouble stopping after that first bite. And for people who relish cannibal jokes. Mouth-watering illustrations, previously unpublished, are by the late "Playboy," "Esquire," and "The New Yorker" cartoonist Dedini. Former chubby teen-cum-consultant-to-Weight Watchers Ina Silvert Hillebrandt created the diet and cooking tips, along with ideas to nourish the inner cannibal while slimming down. Uncle Dan tossed social satire into the pot -- his recipe for skewered presidents is to die for, and this cooking tip, "Use Oil of Olé when sautéeing Spaniards," makes so much sense when you see how he fleshes it out. HONORS Publisher Pawpress is proud to note that in February 2016, "You Are Who You Eat" was added to the collection of The Billy Ireland Cartoon Libraries & Museum at Ohio State University, where a number of original cartoons featuring Dedini's signature luscious women and lascivious men, along with other art, are housed.
