Abstract: | Don't eat anything your great-greatgreat grandmother wouldn't recognize as food. Imagine how baffled your ancestors would be in a modern supermarket:the epoxy-like tubes of Go-Gurt, the preternaturally fresh Twinkies, the vaguely pharmaceutical Vitamin Water. Those aren't foods, quite; they're food products. History suggests you might want to wait a few decades or so before adding such novelties to your diet, the substitution of margarine for butter be- ing the classic case in point. My mother used to predict "they" would eventually discover that butter was better for you. |
