I’ve done a podcast on learning about food after the whole heart incident — virtually nothing I learned was good. While I’ve learned to eat much healthier fare than I did before (and lovely Carol has learned to fix dishes that are both wonderfully healthy and delightfully tasty), there’s always a battle between eating the things you’ve learned to love and eating the things you’ve learned are good for you.
Judith Woodburn has written a wistful look at the dilemma, A Time in Life for Pie and Beer, in the New York Times. She talks about the issue from the caregiver’s point of view, but there’s a lot in the piece that I recognize. I’m not in the shape her father was, and I can afford much more balance in life, but recognizing that our food culture puts us in a bit of a fix — and that food is far more than simple fuel in our society — is a critical part of learning to keep the things you put in your mouth from killing you.
Thanks to Instapundit for the pointer — Glenn is always good for thought-provoking links.
