I just read Unhappy Meals from the NY Times. It was actually really interesting, and if you’ve got some time on your hands, I’d recommend it. The first line strikes me as something that’s far too simple and obvious to ever catch on:
Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
I have really been eating crap for the last little while. I should definitely get some more real “food” into me.
Clearly I could stand to eat a little less. (Or several of my shirts have spontaneously shrunk.)
On the subject of “mostly plants”, I have been there for a while. But, at the end of the article, I was introduced to a new word: “Flexitarianism“. There’s a word that describes the thing I am! I feel like I should subscribe to a newsletter or something.
So, I’m going to try to get back into the habit of cooking. A late New Year’s resolution.

I think Greg is a flexivegaquarian. It sounds cool!
