Summary

For Mike Milken, just the thought of a double cheeseburger with special sauce and fried onion rings at Bob's Big Boy would start his mouth watering. This shouldn't surprise readers of The Taste for Living Cookbook (CaP CURE, 1998) who may recall his description of a life happily spent devouring high-fat food, his abrupt conversion to healthy (but boring!) fare after a diagnosis of advanced prostate cancer, and the revelation that it was safe to return to many of his favorite foods thanks to the work of prominent nutrition researchers and chef Beth Ginsberg.
