“More than 50 percent of the food dollar is spent outside the home now, and that’s a big difference [from] what it was several decades ago. People are eating outside because they’re on the move, they have crowded schedules, they want to take the family out for a treat – and there are so many restaurants out there now to cater to this need. … The problem is when you go out, you tend to eat more and you tend to eat worse than when you eat at home.”Kelly Brownell

My plate revisited. Plus a funny take on it here.

It’s not strict paleo but what you’re looking at is the finest homemade guacamole and corn “chips” ever! We made them by cooking plain ol’ corn tortillas (corn and water) in bacon fat for a minute. Who needs Canada’s Low Erucic Acid Rapeseed (aka CANOLA oil) when bacon fat does the trick so well and without being an oxidizing, Omega-6 disaster. I think Michael Pollan would be proud.
