Summary: great book but getting very outdated
Comment: first, this is a great book! a must have for all vegan, veggie, healthfood store luvin travelers. we traveled this country and used this book at least once a day.all in all it was pretty informative and gave a great description of what the store was like and what they sold,and most of the time the directions were good and simple,sometimes bad and some times wrong. but hey... they give you the phone # so its not a big deal. my only real complaint at all is we need a revised book. I mean "1998" ?
a whole bunch of natural food stores have gone up since "98"
and many of the listed stores are out of buisness.we travelled in "2000" and found it out dated, i can only imagine how outdated it is now.
one more point: even being out dated this book is well worth it
because most stores are still running and even when we ran across one that was gone the book had still put us in an area were another heathfood store had popped up. well worth the $
i'd buy it 5 years from now if there were no revised ed.s, but really hope thats not the future

Summary: Always saves me on the road
Comment: I am a traveler. Being a vegetarian on the road can be difficult. The choices are somewhat limited to greasy hamburgers. However, the Tofu Tollbooth really saves me. Elizabeth Zipern and Dar Williams have compiled quite a listing of vegetarian friendly establishments. Sure, most of these places are not interstate-side drive-ins (many listings are of co-ops and natural food stores), but finding a local co-op can be a fun and educational side trip. The places that Zipern and Williams list give the traveler a taste of the local culture as well. The only fault that I can find in this book is that I wish the directions were a bit clearer. Sometimes I find myself following the directions and getting off the highway only to drive many more miles than I had expected. I wish that information such as distence from the highway had been included. But besides that minor drawback, the Tofu Tollbooth is a must for any vegetarian on the road!

Summary: Out of date
Comment: It's a great idea, but I'm disappointed with this book. Half of the stores I attempted to visit during a recent trip through the Northwest were no longer in business or had moved.
