This is the second copy of this guide I've purchased, after the first one went home with one of my patients. I like the array of fast food restaurants listed in the back and the variety of items from highly processed items to boiled peanuts. I have found many ethnic items listed as well, which is very helpful for folks who weren't born in the States. It does focus on carbohydrates, fiber and sugar, and is not complete nutritional information - but if what you are looking for is carb counting - I loved it.
