This is great. I just wrote an article about our addiction to fast and highly processed food. We need a revolution! We're getting sicker and sicker and yet the information about why is just not getting to the right people. https://aplottohatch.substack.com/p/4-have-we-lost-the-plot-junk-food

Thanks for the article - some really useful advice. Following and subscribed!! 🤗

Great post Sue. I find so many look for the quick and easy way but have to realize it is a journey. I always recommend slow steps to making food changes because it can get very overwhelming for people. One tip is to take the time to meal plan and make a list. There are so many resources out there to help with that so there should be no excuses.

The most important thing you said- small changes, one at a time.

I love the way you explained how to gradually change your palate to enjoy more natural foods- it’s hard to just change and not feel like you’re missing out when the body is addicted to factory and lab concoctions, but this plan of going slow gives a person a fighting chance

Thanks Tim! I think the time factor, allowing your palate to change, is why so many people fail at creating a lasting impact on what they eat. I know it really took time, but now the results are just crazy. I can taste the fakeness now whereas before I thought it was wonderful. So much deception built into commercially made foods.

Ohhh that sounds fantastic and yes, I’d love to know more about baking bread. This is going my list!

The Bread Bakers Apprentice by Peter Reinhart. This was gifted to me long ago and changed everything about how I think of bread. If you have any desire to learn about making excellent bread at home this book is a must. Sourdough and whole wheat breads are included.
