Gross Me Out! 50 Nasty Projects to Disgust Your Friends & Repulse Your Family by Ralph Retcher and Betty Lou Poo (aka Joe Rhatigan and Rain Newcomb), illus. by Clay Meyer, delivers enough repellant recipes and contemptible crafts to keep kids permanently grounded. Sections include ""Your Very Gross Body"" and ""Gag Gifts,"" with recipes like Curdled Milk Pancreas with Green Salsa Bile and Roadkill Roast. Unpleasant foods eaten worldwide (e.g., haggis and sweetbreads) and an interview with a cockroach are informative while sacrificing none of the gross factor. .
