Timothy Haugh said This Guy Is Funny. My interest in Jim Gaffigan’s work has followed a strange path. Never very familiar with him as a stand-up comic, I read his book Dad Is Fat because that was a sentence I heard often from my own children. That book turned out to be laugh-out-loud funny, so it’s no surprise that I took a look at his follow-up, Food: A Love Story.

Insights such as: why he believes coconut water was invented to get people to stop drinking coconut water, why pretzel bread is #3 on his most important inventions of humankind (behind the wheel and the computer), and the answer to the age-old question “which animal is more delicious: the pig, the cow, or the bacon cheeseburger?”. Fans flocked to his New York Times bestselling book Dad is Fat to hear him riff on fatherhood but now, in his second book, he will give them what they really crave—hundreds of pages of his thoughts on all things culinary(ish).
