While it may seem impossible to taste each dish that Sheraton has so lovingly described (she admits to only having eaten around 90 percent of the entries herself), she spares no details when it comes to describing the flavor, texture, history and terroir of a given entry. Her latest book, 1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die, which took ten years to write, is a love letter to many dishes and ingredients that Sheraton has encountered throughout her illustrious 60-year career. Our guess is that most people would struggle to just name 1,000 foods, but when legendary food writer and lifetime New Yorker Mimi Sheraton tried, her main challenge was whittling down her options.
