A real food dinner

I have found several things helpful in my quest to eat real food in America. One is having a brother who has an organic garden. And of course who kindly shares much of the nutritious produce. I've used cabbage in several meals. Tonight I made a dish I learned from my mother another person who has been a help. I saw my mom cook and bake many things from scratch. So, I made chicken divan crepes with broccoli from my brothers garden. I was thinking of a website regarding the same thing and the domain name was taken. So I thought I'd check it out http://realfoodchallenge.org/ . The focus is to bring real food to college campuses and a greater understanding about local, sustainable and organic.

Education is definitely the key, because when you understand more about what real food is and what a food product is - you are more likely to make an effort to eat real food. Instead of eating the subsidized american food products that are so cheaply and abundantly available. I suggest reading these books by Michael Pollan, The Omnivores Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals and In Defense of Food: An Eaters Manifesto. And also the book by Joel Salatin, Everything I Want to do is Illegal: War Stories from the Local Food Front. There are currently 35 requests for Omnivore's Dilemma at my local library. I have yet to read In Defense of Food.
