Primitive New Zealand Maori

Last fall I read Dr. Weston Price’s book, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration (you can read it online). If you haven’t read it yet, I strongly recommend it. To summarize the work of Dr. Price, here’s a quote from the Weston A. Price Foundation’s brochure: The groups Price studied included sequestered villages in Switzerland, Gaelic communities [...]

Sally Fallon

There’s a great article in the Washington Post today about Sally Fallon. It turns out that her book (co-authored with nutritionist, Mary Enig) has sold more copies than Rachel Ray’s “30 Minute Meals” and Ina Garten’s, “The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook”. In 12 years, the book [Nourishing Traditions], corrected in a second edition, has sold 310,000 [...]

Homemade French Fries

I served the meal with Lillet Blanc (a French apertif that tastes like orange) on ice, watered down with a little Pellegrino and a slice of orange. [...]

The mother was 85 years old, very strong and healthy, and had not [...]

Michael Pollan on Milk

cheeseslave » 07 January 2008 » In Uncategorized » 18 Comments

I was just listening to Michael Pollan on the Everyday Foods show on Martha Stewart’s channel on Sirius radio. I am really loving his book The Omnivore’s Dilemma so I was excited to hear him on the radio. However, I completely disagreed with him! A woman called in and asked about feeding whole milk to [...]

What If Fat Isn’t So Bad?

cheeseslave » 04 January 2008 » In Uncategorized » 5 Comments

MSNBC reports: Suppose you were forced to live on a diet of red meat and whole milk. A diet that, all told, was at least 60 percent fat — about half of it saturated. If your first thoughts are of statins and stents, you may want to consider the curious case of the Masai, a [...]
