About the book, You Are Who You Eat, The Revolutionary New Cannibal Diet
Low cal tips like “Lay off fried people” make You Are Who You Eat the ideal weight loss guide for
anyone — cannibal and civilian alike — who has trouble stopping after that first bite. And for
people who relish cannibal jokes. Mouth-watering illustrations, previously unpublished, are by
the late Playboy, Esquire, The New Yorker and Disney cartoonist Dedini. Former chubby teen-
cum-consultant-to-Weight Watchers Ina Silvert Hillebrandt created the diet and cooking tips,
along with ideas to nourish the inner cannibal while slimming down. Uncle Dan tossed social
satire into the pot — his recipe for skewered presidents is to die for, and this cooking tip, “Use
Oil of Olé when sautéeing Spaniards,” makes so much sense when you see how he fleshes it
out.
Publisher Pawpress is proud to note that in February 2016, You Are Who You Eat was added to
the collection of The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum at Ohio State University, where a
number of original cartoons featuring Dedini’s signature luscious women and lascivious men,
along with other art, are housed. Dedini and his art are being honored at a special exhibit at the
Billy Ireland from February – May, 2016.
