A friend sent me a link to a really interesting TED talk about food. Jamie Oliver has come to the United States to educate us about good nutrition. I am aware that a large percentage of Americans are overweight. I am also aware that most of us have limited knowledge about healthy eating, or have very distorted ideas about the subject. Yet, I still found several points in his lecture surprising. He shares enlightening interviews/encounters he has with Americans about food. If you have an extra 20 minutes, I would recommend watching this talk. (I recently learned that Mr. Oliver has a tv show that premiers March 26 on ABC.)
I have no exciting personal food news to share. We had leftover pasta for supper last night. I am, however, very excited about tonight's French inspired supper. Check back for tomorrow's post.
Whoa! "French inspired supper?" I'm pretty excited about that, too.
