The Ungarnished Truth: A Cooking Contest Memoir

Trama

A woman, a chicken, and a million-dollar adventure in the heartland of America's competitive cooking culture. Immediately after Alex Trebek announced that her dish had won a million dollars, this amateur cook was thrown into the limelight. She soon found herself booked on Oprah-and even photographed for the New York Times in a vest made of ostrich feathers-as the reigning queen of chickendom, the Pillsbury "It Girl" of the moment.
