Craveable Obsessed: Journals of a Food Addicted Chef
An unfiltered, award-winning memoir of food, obsession, and the fire that saved a life.
This is not your typical chef story.
This is a raw, confessional dive into the mind of Chef Jeffrey Schlissel—a man who built his career around food while silently drowning in addiction to it.
From the intensity of professional kitchens to the private spiral of binge cycles and self-sabotage, Craveable Obsessed unpacks the battle between flavor and fear, hunger and healing. It’s brutally honest. Sometimes funny. Always human.
Whether you’ve faced food addiction, burnout, or simply want to understand what it means to chase purpose through pain, this book will shake something loose in you.
