Don't waste much food - peelings from Vegetables along with Banana skins, Avocado and   tangerine skins, as well as a few apple cores.   Burnt about  1/2 cup of cooked oat grouts (like porridge) had to add them to the green bin.  Reminds me I should set the timer   

One of the options I am trying is having a big salad every day with a lot uf coloured vegetables:  Purple cabbage,  carrots, capiscum (red peppers). broccoli,. spinach,  shallots, and a little goat cheese   ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS    

Whenn America was Formed, the Gun was the tool they used to conquer the land, and decimate the herds of buffalo and other animals.  Also provided room to raise catle and herd them to the local markets.   People got ised to eating meat, and this habit has expanded to encompass all forms of meat from the steaks etc diwn to the Burgers.  With the rise of franchising this wat of life sprad widely in the US and has gone on to other countries.  In conjuncton with highly refined foods  this had a huge impact on US choices of "nutrition"     It is only recently that we arebeginning to understand the detrimental effect this has had on our health.   At the present , in spite of all the thinking and bad habits  that we have fallen into, there is a great movement to understand he best way forward, and I feel we are making progress toward a more healthy lifestyle which doies not include animal products.
