Hand-smack to the forehead, America!
I’m devouring Real Food by Nina Planck, thank you Hudson Library and Historical Society for your delicious selection of current books.
Each sentence is a great, fat, gobbing YES, and I am so glad that I already know a lot of this information, and wish more people would allow themselves to even think outside of the industrialized food box.

Bacon and eggs for brekkie! Cooked in butter!
Which is what we just had this moment! Twice a week I cook it, I eat it, I feed it to my kids. I’m a heathen!

Hey, thanks for the heads up on this! I love to read stuff like this because it’s easy to forget that real food is the only food.
What the rest is, who knows, but it doesn’t look good on us. And it makes us feel bad. And the good news is—real food is sooooo tasty and satisfying. So hooray!

I will be ordering this book, if for nothing else than to justify my bacon and pancakes (made with eggs! and whole milk!) for breakfast habit.
Thanks for something to think about, Kelly.

Well, you know where I stand regarding bacon, eggs, and butter.
I really enjoyed this book; between her book and Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma, there’s been some good stuff coming into the mainstream regarding Real Food. I hope some of it sticks.

I went to school with Nina and was lucky enough to enjoy the foods from her parents farm. I love this book.
