Penn & Teller's How to Play with Your Food

Ugh, this one is hilarious. The bad boys of magic have a book here that is a little different than your standard "magic" book. Maybe that is why I like it. There are a few great gags that I got from this book that I have utilized around the dinner table. Read this one.

If you love Penn and Teller, this is a great way to curl up and enjoy the literary wonders of these 2 genious masterminds at work. Pretty much this book tells you how to have fun with some magic tricks involving food, and how to perform them, and set them up. Personally my favorite story in the book, not a trick, is about Penn and the Milkshake. You'll have to get the book to know what I am talking about but the whole book is great. I would also suggest you get the other 2 books they have out too. Cruel tricks for dear friends, and How to play in traffic. Great stuff.

everybody loves humor, everybody loves food, and, well, there are creeps who don't like penn & teller, but this if one of the funniest things i've ever read, i learned every trick in the book and life is neeeeeever boring. the two best parts, in my opinion: teller's bit on the great egg drop and penn's story of a milkshake as self-defense. worth every penny.

Everything from de-bunking spoon bending to "The parsley game" ( you need to read to know..). Highly recommended for those interested in magic or just want to poke their eye out with a fork. I couldn't put this book down and laughed my wife awake.

Penn & Teller's "How To Play With Your Food" is a must have for any practicle jokster. From even the simplest tricks, like how to poke your eye out with a fork, to the elaborate "Transporting Davidletterman's Watch into A Fish." This book is a riot to even read when you can imagine you friends squirming at the "Bleeding Gelitan Heart Dessert" to the comical rammerings you might get when you open "The Lie in Your Lunchbox." The one thing that is recommened if you decide to preform any of these tricks is to keep the book hidden and alos look at the NPD rule as you will read in this fine book. "How To Play With Your Food" has the same style as their other hit "Cruel Tricks For Dear Friends." When I talked to Teller in Vegas after a preformance that they did he mentioned that they are working on a new book called "How To Play On The Freeway." Over all this book is great even if you don't preform the tricks
