Whited, a … psychic experimenter [swears that she has been getting recipes from the late noted chef James Beard]. … [A]nybody could lose weight following the recipes Whited says Beard has been dictating to her. Far from the Lucullan feasts for which he was renowned, they include such prim nibbles as tofu pudding pie, rye sesame sticks and carob cookies.
