Instruct: Classify Amazon reviews into positive or negative sentiment
Query: I really tried to give this book a chance, but......

Everything tastes very odd, and yes, I can cook, so It wasnt a question of loose nut between the book and the mixing bowl, ha ha. I agree with one of the other reviews, in that there are easier and tastier ways to prepare some of the dishes, BESIDES using pork rinds and guar gum over and over. I was very dissapointed and I am returning this book and the companion dessert book.
