Nuts And Seeds
Are they really a healthy part of a paleo diet?
The good news, sort of, for me, is that I’m allergic to most of them, except macadamias, which are apparently very good. The bad news is that they’re expensive, but perhaps increased demand will spur more production and ultimately bring down prices.
Corn-Bread Stuffing
Glenn links to a recipe from Rod Dreher. Looks good, but I’m allergic to pecans. Here’s mine, which I originally posted seven years ago, and is more paleo.
An Unsuccessful Parasite
Successful parasites don’t normally kill their hosts, but the Bakers Union just did.
Speaking Of Paleo Diets
Best wishes to Charlie Martin. I predict it will work.
For what it’s worth, my dad died at fifty-five, a third of a century ago, in large part due to criminal dietary advice (OK, maybe that’s a little too strong — they probably knew no better) and my mother at sixty-eight to a massive heart attack in the night, in her sleep. At least for her, it was fast. And in both cases they were overweight smokers, a product of their generation.
It’s Not Just Paleo
More on North Carolina’s war on dietary freedom of speech.
Healing Brains
This increases my conviction that it’s good for uninjured brains, too, because there are no uninjured brains, when it comes to aging.
Want To Live Longer?
Go on a low-carb ketogenic diet.
Why Do We Buy Cookbooks?
Some thoughts.
I’m guessing that I’m in Megan’s class when it comes to the number owned, but I also rare use them any more. It really is a lot easier to just look up a recipe on the web with a netbook on the kitchen counter. I mainly use them for traditional recipes that I’ve made for years for special occasions, like holidays (I’ve been using the New York Times cookbook for decades). Also, most cookbooks I have don’t do well with a paleolithic diet.
Free Speech
A judicial blow against it. Go support the Institute for Justice in their continuing battle against this outrageous ruling.
