Eat Local

Ironic that this ad should come from Hellmans, a Unilever® brand.

I’ll go one step further: don’t just buy American. Buy local as much as possible. I’m not yet doing CSA (Community-Supported Agriculture) for urgent personal reasons, but I may next year. And I am heading to the Farmer’s Market soon.

Oh: one more thing. Buy and read Michael Polan’s, Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual. Funny and practical commentary on The Seven Words (also coined by the author): Eat Food. Not too much. Mostly plants.

Had I taken such advice 40 years ago, I wouldn’t look like the Goodyear blimp, or consume $thousands in medicines each year, or need to pay someone to help me lose 72 pounds (26 down, 46 to go!).

One thought on “Eat Local

  1. That video is exceptional! Thanks so much for posting it and I may do the same thing. It did a great job of making the real connections between the dinner table and the economy and health and …. Good luck with a CSA. I hope you do try it.
