"Amazing stories . . . Intimate portraits of how these five ruthless leaders] were at home and at the table." --Lulu Garcia-Navarro, NPR's Weekend Edition Sunday Anthony Bourdain meets Kapuściński in this chilling look from within the kitchen at the appetites of five of the twentieth century's most infamous dictators, by the acclaimed author of Dancing Bears. What was Pol Pot eating while two million Cambodians were dying of hunger? Did Idi Amin really eat human flesh? And why was Fidel Castro obsessed with one particular cow? Traveling across four continents, from the ruins of Iraq to the savannahs of Kenya, Witold Szablowski tracked down the personal chefs of five dictators known for the oppression and massacre of their own citizens--Iraq's Saddam Hussein, Uganda's Idi Amin, Albania's Enver Hoxha, Cuba's Fidel Castro, and Cambodia's Pol Pot--and listened to their stories over sweet-and-sour soup, goat-meat pilaf, bottles of rum, and games of gin rummy. Dishy, deliciously readable, and dead serious, How to Feed a Dictator provides a knife's-edge view of life under tyranny.Binding Type: Paperback

A Working Set Of Strips
This is not expensive. It does whiten your teeth. I don't see the 3d effect. You get some strips. 2 Types. This box will last you some time. If you want white teeth then this can help make it happen. This weirdly caused me pain the last few times I used them. Outside of this no issue with them. They come on and off no problem. I kinda recommend this. Just be careful.

Great value purchase
I wanted to get my teeth professionally whitened and have never done stripes before, but the professional whitening was quoted at $700 so I thought this would be a good start instead. I have done them a few times and the teeth get sensitive the next day but thats to be expected and no more than usual, then goes back to normal. I haven't done a ton but have noticed a difference already and plan to continue doing them!

My annual go to for sparkling whites before events
I have sensitive teeth and worn down enamel. These strips whiten without pain or additional sensitivity.
I use this once or twice a year before big events. It works great for that sparkling smile.
(Time only allowed for 10 days of whitening this time. The additional 3 days included in this pack would’ve resulted in even more dramatic effects)

They definitely whiten, but caused severe sensitivity
I have mixed feelings about these whitening strips. On the positive side, they absolutely do what they promise, my teeth are noticeably whiter, and the actual whitening results were fantastic.
However, they left my teeth painfully sensitive. I was very careful to follow the instructions exactly and made sure I only left them on for the strictly recommended amount of time, but I still experienced intense, lingering sensitivity afterward.
If you have a high tolerance or don't usually struggle with sensitive teeth, these might be a great fit for you since they really do work. But if you are prone to sensitivity at all, I would definitely proceed with caution!
