Hi, Mike, thanks. I wrote this after eating Cheez Doodles! But there's great stuff here; I hope to try a couple of the recipes. I found the stuff about the Skippy's peanut butter in the Thai restaurant to be particularly appalling.

Hi, Peter, thanks for coming by. I have found some really good stuff lately on food and ecological matters. This book is terrific. Glad to see you around again.

Back to basics (Reply to this comment)
by eplovejoy
It's amazing what people in other cultures have long known that would help us if we paid attention, like how people used to use moldy bread long before it was turned into penicillin. Cultures in South America, blended just the right kinds of spices in with their corn to maximize the corn's nutrition, and that was more than a millennium before anyone could analyze it in a laboratory.
Thanks, Pam, for the terrific suggestion. I will certainly be following your guidance. Nicely done.

YOU WROTE: (Reply to this comment)

"... there's something wrong with the American diet."
Yep. But then, I myself never have much to say about that stuff. ;-)
"she firmly recommends that we eat at home more often to control what we are eating, and staying out of restaurants"
Hey, she knoweth my "M.O."!
"keep the disease of Western diets spreading too far"
It's been "spreading too far" 'round many American middles, methinks. ;-)
Great and informative review, Pambo! ("Good eating" and "good health" to you!)
Mike
P.S.:
I wish I had me some of that Icelandic moss! YUM!
