A GREAT FOOD READ

`Our relationship with the food we eat is extremely important ....and what it means to be human .If you can derive joy from something you have to do several times a day , then it will add to the quality of your life. We need to trim some of the bullshit that pervades the world of food and let people enjoy each mouthful a little more. Eating well is about pleasure , balance and the creation of memories. The more we break food down, the more we define it by the chemicals it contains, the more we label items as good, contaminated or pure and add to the guilt or shame we place on ourselves, we move further away from a sensible, balanced relationship with the food we need. We need to understand that when it comes to the food we eat that control and restriction are personal ie moral decisions. Poor dietary choices occur when people eat without thought. A positive relationship with food can be achieved through variety and balance .... If any of the above makes sense .....then you need to get a copy of The Angry Chef , finally a book with no answers, no quick fixes, recipes or photos but opens up questions for thought on food related faddery, hack science , nutritional fakery and clean eating cobblers . We have so much information available to us about food and health ...there`s GAPS, paleo, detox, alkaline , clean eating and sugar free .....why then are so many intelligent,sensible people being taken in when a lot of it is not only wrong but has proven to be harmful? A great food read. THE ANGRY CHEF.....ANTHONY WARNER .
