Well If Carol Alt Can Go Raw…


The day I received The Raw 50 by Carol Alt in the mail, I had to scan through every recipe; curiosity of the “raw” diet was simply killing me.  I curled up with it in bed (yes, I curl up with cookbooks) for some nighttime reading.  Though I somehow didn’t care for the overall writing […]

While this month’s articles at Foods Matter had much more of a UK spin, there were some interesting news bites for all to enjoy, such as an interesting story on fructose intolerance (yep fructose, not lactose).  The monthly highlights were a gluten-free bread taste-testing (mostly UK only breads), food allergy in the NHS (??), and […]
