Book Twenty Eight


I'm doing my third cleanse this week and quite frankly, I'm just done with health books. I've learned all about Omega 3's and low glycemic diets and hydrating. I'm eating protein at every meal and drinking cranberry juice and organic foods when possible. But, what I really want, is a Potbelly Oreo Shake.

I found Mark Bittman's book just NOT as good as Pollan's In Defense of Food. He attacks meat and dairy with a vengeance but also in a very boring, repetitive way. This might be a good introduction to healthy eating for the new millennium but stay away if you've read others in the same genre.

This book is mostly recipes. Bittman is an amazing chef and I plan to go through his recipes one at a time because I do think they will help my cooking. Just not sure I plan on eating quinoa and barley for breakfast any time soon.

I still love me my Greek yogurt.
