      So, really? You don't know: the difference between wine, brandy, and liqueur? which is better for you, health-wise—saturated or unsaturated fat? what are you eating if you bite into a Cranshaw or a Persian? No problem! We'll have you up and running, food-wise, in no time. So, how do we know all this stuff? Well, we were helping a friend study for the contestant quiz of the Jeopardy! Game show when we realized we had accumulated enough material to help out almost anyone. A student, game show contestant, or the wannabe foodie who lives in all of us. KNOWLEDGE BLASTER! Guide to Food and Drink provides a cornucopia of cooking advice, food safety tips, mixed drink trivia, and nutrition knowledge. You'll find the answers to your food and drink questions in these pages. Why is a baker's dozen different from a regular dozen? What spice is made from the ground outer coating of nutmeg? How can you make scrambled eggs light and fluffy? What is the best district in the world for red wine? What fluffy dish takes its name from the French for "breath?" Did you answer all the questions correctly? No? Well, then... The KNOWLEDGE BLASTER! Series compresses a great mountain of available information into easily digestible morsels. You'll find the books are patterned in an efficient question-and-answer mode, stressing simplicity, brevity, and clarity. You can use this reference work as a launch pad to propel yourself into more in-depth studies. However, if you find this little study guide provides all the information you need, then consider your knowledge... Blasted!

    Yucca Road Productions started as all great enterprises do... having a cup of coffee with friends at the kitchen table. One of our little gang of misfits had decided he was destined to appear on the Jeopardy! game show. The rest of us were foolhardy enough to volunteer our surprisingly diverse knowledge sets for the task of preparing him for said destiny.A couple years later, we had accumulated so much info, it was nuts. After deleting what we decided was "trivia" in the game show's dozen or so most-used categories, we figured we could teach anybody to do well on a game show. Or an exam. Or trivia night at the neighborhood pub. Oh, yes... we nailed that one.And so, the Knowledge Blaster! series was conceived and delivered!Then Terry Marsh wrote a couple novels and approached us about getting them published. We liked the books. So, after coercing him into buying bagels for everybody, we added him to our list of ne'er-do-wells.Then Leo Moss surprised us with a book of more-or-less poetry and a novel about a reluctant magic man. We added his works to the list, too. We had to. Moss is the only guy in the group who can spell without a dictionary (so we made him editor), and we just can't find anybody else who will work for the "prestige" of it. Just kidding, Leo.So, time passes, as is its habit. We're still at the kitchen table, wondering what might happen next. We hope it involves pizza, but you never know.
