Cooked Raw is the dramatic memoir detailing Matthew Kenney's remarkable and riveting journey through the culinary world and his provocative exploration of the future of food for the 21st century.

As a chef in late 80s New York, Kenney was on national television, carrying full pages in fashion magazines and being flown all over the world to consult and appear. As his career and empire grew, Kenney became more and more disconnected from the work he was doing and searched for a way out. Eventually, his overextended business crumbled and made for years of gossip columns.

This ending evolved into one of the most exhilarating stories in the food world, as Kenney embraced his passions for a sustainable lifestyle, he shocked the culinary world with his intention to prepare food not only without cooking but without heat, devoid of animal products and processed foods: a cuisine made of plants and no heat. Raw food for a new world.
