The newest essay collection from the New York Times bestselling author John Waters, reflecting on how to overcome newfound respectability and rebel in the autumn of your years.

No one knows more about everything--especially everything rude, clever, and offensively compelling--than John Waters. The man in the pencil-thin mustache, auteur of the transgressive movie classics Pink Flamingos, Polyester, Hairspray, Cry-Baby, and A Dirty Shame, is one of the world's great sophisticates, and in Mr. Know-It-All he serves it up raw: how to fail upward in Hollywood; how to develop musical taste, from Nervous Norvus to Maria Callas; how to build a home so ugly and trendy that no one but you would dare live in it; more important, how to tell someone you love them without emotional risk; and yes, how to cheat death itself. Through it all, Waters swears by one undeniable truth: "Whatever you might have heard, there is absolutely no downside to being famous. None at all."

Studded with cameos, from Divine and Mink Stole to Johnny Depp, Kathleen Turner, Patricia Hearst, and Tracey Ullman, and illustrated with unseen photos from the author's personal collection, Mr. Know-It-All is Waters' most hypnotically readable, upsetting, revelatory book--another instant Waters classic.

Praise for John Waters

"Waters doesn't kowtow to the received wisdom, he flips it the bird . . . Waters] has the ability to show humanity at its most ridiculous and make that funny rather than repellent." --Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post

"Carsick becomes a portrait not just of America's desolate freeway nodes--though they're brilliantly evoked--but of American fame itself." --Lawrence Osborne, The New York Times Book Review

good taste with no added sugar
Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12)
MrBeast Links has zero added sugar and still manages to stay moist with a really good flavor, which is impressive. I wouldn’t have expected it to maintain that texture without some kind of sugar infusion, but Jack Link's really got it right. It’s especially a great option if you’re trying to cut a few carbs out of your diet.

It’s Fine
Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12)
I was excited for low sugar. They made up for it in salt. Way too salty. Inconsistent quality from one stick to the next. Not a bad product. Not for me.

Slimy! Taste okay, but strange texture
Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12), Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12)
I really wanted to like these but they're really slimy! I've had Jack Links before but these are even more slimy. I normally get chomps or archer beef sticks. I would say these have the texture of the archer beef stick just a bit more slimy. Not my favorite.

Great for snacking!
Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12)
Being a diabetic I enjoy eating these for a snack because they won’t raise your blood sugar. Taste is fine and an excellent source of protein.
