Tasty prose New or upcoming in paperback: three fascinating takes on how America eats. Southern Belly: The Ultimate Food Lover's Companion to the South (Algonquin) by John Edge, dean of Southern food writers, is a revised and expanded guide to more than 200 restaurants and other sources of culinary bounty below the Mason-Dixon Line. The United States of Arugula: The Sun-Dried, Cold-Pressed, Dark-Roasted, Extra Virgin Story of the American Food Revolution (Broadway) by David Kamp is a dishy inside look at how radically our eating habits have changed in two decades. The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals (Penguin) by Michael Pollan is a brilliant account of the author's travels through the worst - and best - of the American food industry. If you eat, you need to read this book.
