In anticipation of a move, I& #39;ve been sorting cookbooks to get rid of. @bittman& #39;s How to Cook Everything (original edition) is the biggest dilemma, as it was the last move. My copy is in tatters. But the Updated version is Not the Same.

Do I keep it?
I should add, given the comments about Joy of Cooking -- I DID get rid of that in the last move (a decade ago). I also got rid of The Spice Cookbook, which was even more tattered.
I should FURTHER add: I& #39;m getting rid of Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home AND Baking with Julia, for all those comparing with Childs& #39; books.
Two other dilemma cookbooks:

Sundays at Moosewood

Silver Palate, with notes and recipes from the guy who gave it to me

Here& #39;s the second. The ones on the left are on the bubble.
And here are the ones I& #39;m getting rid of.
