Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

As the foreword to The Taco Cleanse explains, cleanses are 'socially acceptable starvation disguised as health' that 'demand you choke down lemon juice swirled with cayenne pepper and your tears so that you can lose those last five pounds.' In other words, they are 'the fing worst.' There's just one exception: one cleanse that is more like the fing best.

This cleanse will help you forge a new path of wellness and self-discovery that you'll want to stay on for the rest of your life. It will increase glow in your face and forehead, provide an uplifting sensation in your core chakra, stimulate your nocturnal imagination, and retroactively prevent hangovers. It's satisfying, scientific, and best of all, simple: All of your meals must contain tacos. That's right, it's the #TacoCleanse.

Every recipe happens to be vegan, but this cleanse is NOT for vegans only: It's for anyone who experiences recurring feelings of hunger on a daily basis, frequently lacks access to eating utensils such as forks or chopsticks, and tilts their head to the left while inserting food into their mouth. Does that describe you? Then it's time to cleanse.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The Taco Cleanse has received praise from major outlets: "The only cleanse we want to try this year" (Huffington Post), "The only cleanse you'll ever need" (Jezebel), and hailed as one of Amazon's Best Books of the Month in Cookbooks, Food & Wine. Readers report feeling healthier after following the cleanse, with acclaim from Esquire, Washington Post, Bustle, and Cosmopolitan celebrating its embrace of solid, enjoyable foods.

About the Author

Wes Allison is the chief nutrition scientist and illustrator for The Taco Cleanse. Taco cleansing took his perspective on life from "meh" to "yeah!" He lives in Austin, Texas (where else?).


Stephanie Bogdanich blogs about vegan recipes, restaurant reviews, and Austin happenings at lazysmurf.wordpress.com. She enjoys whiling away her time in hammocks, especially in tropical locales, and although she loves breakfast tacos, she sometimes sleeps too late to get them.


Molly Frisinger is the writer behind Lone Star Plate, the blog of vegan Texas, where she covers vegan food, lifestyles, communities, and activism from El Paso to Houston. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her husband and two cats, and she has strong opinions about chili (no beans!).


Jessica Morris is a vegan tattooed bunny-hugging hair colorist who runs Rabbit Food Grocery, an online and pop-up vegan shop based in Austin, Texas. She firmly believes that even those who hate to cook can enjoy the benefits of a Taco Cleanse.
