Comic essays on appetite, indulgence, and everyday excess

A collection of humorous essays and digressions centered on eating, drinking, smoking, health, and the habits of overindulgence. Cosby uses familiar consumptions—from hoagies to stogies—as entry points for comic observations about cravings, self-control, and the ways people rationalize behavior they know may not serve them well. The book’s essay format keeps the focus on a sequence of connected topics rather than a single narrative, with food functioning as both a subject in its own right and a lens on broader everyday compulsions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults who enjoy humor in essay form
  • Readers interested in comic takes on food and indulgence
  • Fans of observational writing about everyday habits
