The World Affects What We Eat
Recently I read Heidi’s post about the Moro East Cookbook, and I was very sad to read that these wonderful community gardens were destroyed because of the Olympics Committee decision. You can read the full article here. This is a classic example, in my opinion, of how the world is so blind to the importance of the role good food plays in both the community and in a persons individual health.
One of our dreams for the future is to buy a plot of land where we can build our dream house and create a large garden plot for our family. When I was a girl my family grew a lot of vegetables on our own land. I fondly remember picking peppers, zucchini, squash, and other yummies. I was a picky eater and did not truly appreciate how wonderful this was at the time. As an adult, I fondly recall those wonderful vegetables growing patiently in our garden.
More of us should get back in touch with the true, unadulterated nature of fruits and vegetables.
