This is (esp. for Buzz Feed) a pretty good list - I own 8 of them, including the top 6. And I will say that if I had to rank the top three, I definitely would put Colwin, Fisher, and Trillin in that group. Don't have Huang, Jones, Kurlansky, Buford, Bruni, or Adler, but am definitely tempted: http://www.buzzfeed.com/meganreynolds/best-examples-of-food-writing

I've read them all but 6, 7, and 10.
I have all of MFK Fisher's books. I plan to read them all again and then sell them this year.

I've only read 3.5 of them (I never got through Heat)
Will have to look for these at the library, thanks

I have only read 1. It looks like I will be checking out some books at the library.

I just logged into my Library account online and reserved The Tummy Trilogy. Our library does not have this book so they will have to borrow it from another library.

I've read all but 9, 10 and 13. Enjoyed with the exception of Huang's Fresh Off The Boat. I finished it but could have easily stopped anytime after the first 100 pages.
