French fries and grilled cheese? Beginner food! Haggis and truffles? Delicacies! <p/> After failing a school eating test, picky eater Minerva is placed in the lowest eating track of all: Remedial Eating to Change Habits. RETCH class is full of kids with weird personalities and even weirder food preferences. And to make matters worse, Minerva's best friends, in the Gifted and Gourmet class, no longer speak to her. <p/> But soon Minerva finds she is not alone in her pickiness, and forms friendships with her new classmates. And together, they find a way to stand up for themselves--picky and proud!<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Lucianovic puts a delicious spin on the familiar 'middle-schooler learns to own a personal difference rather than be humiliated by it' theme.... There's a roux of sophistication in some of the culinary humor.... Minerva's final triumphant acceptance of her sensitivity to taste and texture as a kind of superpower (as well as the tart verbal smackdown she delivers to a faux friend) will leave readers replete."--<i>Booklist</i> <p/> "[T]he food-based interactions between Minerva and her new friends versus a variety of antagonistic classmates and teachers are often entertaining and amusing....[a] blend of satirical humor within a solid story of friendship."--<i>School Library Journal</i> <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Stephanie V.
