Somehow in the western culture, dinner has become meat, with something on the side (starch, veggie). </p> <p>But we really should &quot;eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants&quot; (Michael Pollan) to be healthy. </p> <p>Having said that, when I serve my family a plate of grilled asparagus, brown rice and a small piece of schnitzel for dinner, all three of them (husband, two kids) tend to pretty much ignore the plants and ask for seconds of the breaded, fried chicken cutlets. </p> <p>Vered DeLeeuw<br /> <a href="http://www.momgrind.com" title="www.momgrind.com">www.momgrind.com</a></p> Tue, 06 May 2008 11:17:30 -0500 Vered comment 42715 at http://www.blogher.com
