I bought the hardbound version through ebay...but I noticed that a paperback version has recently been released. Was it released as is or did they edit the paperback version to meet current modifications -- like milk and tomatoes?

The paperback version has the new food list. So it even allows bananas in phase 2 (and milk and tomatoes in phase 1). I bought it pretty inexpensively at Target.

Thanks, I saw it at WalMart for under $6. Was actually thinking about getting it for my daddy--and might just get one for me too
