cage the food monster! free the humans!

Sometimes lately I feel like Ned Flanders: He asks Bart and Lisa, who are staying with them, "Who wants nachos?... Flanders style!" Bart trepidatiously asks "Flanders-style?" and Flanders responds "Cucumber slices with cottage cheese!" I feel like Ned Flanders, because that sounds good. Except for me, it would have to be vegan cheese. Which seems somehow even more Ned Flanders-ey. Sigh.

cage the food monster! free the humans!: By drastically altering my SAD (standard American diet) which consisted of far too many deep-dried foods, huge portions, etc., I opted for copious amounts of vegetables, leans meats and protein, and whole grains. With moderate exercise (3-mile walks 4x/wk), and some weight training, I managed to lose 65lbs in 6 months. I am continually trying to find ways to reach out and share what I've learned along the way.

The Food Monster is that thing that says, "What the heck!, I'll have another!," the one that keeps wanting more chips, more candy, rendering you helpless. And unhappy. The Food Monster also represents what is wrong with food's production and our relationship (or lack thereof) to what we eat.

Food is nourishment, twinkies are not. Let's celebrate how lucky we are to have constant access to fresh, satisfying food, by creating it and sharing it with others. Mmmmmm. Vegan cheese...
