Here, you'll find the cereal mascot'sHall of Fame (from Tony the Tiger to Snap, Crackle, and Pop), an inspired explication of the junk food inspired "Ode to Cookie" by the classic junk food junkie, Cookie Monster, and many other factoids about everything that falls outside the four food groups.The Junk Food Companion includes celebrity quotes to reassure junk food junkies that they are not alone--Dr. Ruth on gum, Robert Redford on Oreos, and Michael Jordan on the Big Mac?.
