Get Cooking

I read a New York Times article by Michael Pollan, an author and professor at the University of California at Berkeley. With the release of the new Julia Child film (which I'm so excited about), a spotlight is being pointed on the rise of "foodie culture" in America. More people want to know about food, but few of them actually want to cook it. I found this article to be fascinating.

The guy is onto something. The solution to obesity in the US: "You want Americans to eat less? I have the diet for you. It’s short, and it’s simple. Here’s my diet plan: Cook it yourself. That’s it. Eat anything you want — just as long as you’re willing to cook it yourself.”

I'll be in the kitchen..
