Pow Wow Chow cookbook.

Read the comments. Hysterical, as usual.

raves from fellow faculty members May 15, 2012
By John Courtade
Format:Paperback

I've received nothing but rave reviews from my colleagues after whipping up treats from this cookbook in the faculty lounge kitchen. Admirers of Pow Wow Chow may also enjoy Bow Wow Chow, a Indonesian-influenced cookbook from a former professor now in politics.

Overall this selection is lacking and has just a few good recipes inside. One for Humble Pie and another for Roasted Crow.

I thoroughly enjoy the recipes here. My favorite one is called "Diversity Dish." This was contributed by the world's only confirmed blond-haired, blue-eyed Cherokee who used her tomahawk to dig this up from her Oklahoma archives. You start out with 10 quarts of sanctimony, add in a gallon of hypocrisy, throw in a few fables (I recommend the "Family Lore" brand available in Cambridge), add a pinch of whining (1/32 ounce will work), toss in a paleface poseur and a large measure of insufferability. No integrity required. And there you have it: political career implosion. Great for faculty lounge gatherings and unearned academic advancement.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Collection of Recipes for us American Indians, May 17, 2012

Fake but accurate - See all my reviews


This review is from: Pow Wow Chow: A Collection of Recipes from Families of the Five Civilized Tribes : Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole (Paperback)
Recently I became a full blooded American Indian after watching the movies "Last of the Mohicans" and "Dances with Wolves." Indians like me and Lizzie Warren can now share in the wonderful but often harsh world of the Native American. I am brought to tears when I hear how she struggles to live in her million $ Cambridge wigwam. How the white man keeps her in poverty on the Massachusetts Indian reservation called Harvard where they only give her $340,000 per year to live... Sitting Bull weeps to hear such cruelty.

If there is anything I can do as a fellow Indian to help her in her struggles against the evil pale face, please let Sacagawea Warren know I'm here for her...maybe we can meet and talk about our plight at a luncheon or something.

Stay strong Fauxcahontas...stay strong.

I ran across a woman years ago living on an Indian reserve in southern Saskatchewan that was working on a Fulbright Scholarship doing research on Nakota First Nations - a branch of Sioux Indian in Canada. My general impression after meeting her was get rid of all these types of scholarships.
