I love the idea, and the book is very entertaining to read. But: in addition to the objections of the other three reviewers, there is one I would like to add. Because the recipes are often for 1-2 people, you use a weird amount of each ingredient. For instance, recipes call for 1/2 box (or 1 cup) of cake mix, or 2 tablespoons of pudding mix, 3 tbl. of tub frosting, etc. WHAT are you supposed to do with the rest of these items? (I can tell you what I would do with the rest of the tub of frosting, but it sure wouldn't be under 200 calories!!)
For that reason I can't see myself making many of the recipes.
