An Official Halo Cookbook is Coming This August and It’s Not a Late April Fool’s Joke

Insight Editions has announced The Official Halo Cookbook, which will have over 70 recipes for inspiring Master Chefs to try, and, no, this is not a late April Fool’s joke. As bizarre as it sounds, The Official Halo Cookbook was revealed by the Halo Twitter account and is expected to hit bookstores this August.

Most Halo fans will be quick to point out that the series has always had a history with books, whether they be novels or comics.
