I am grateful to be in a position where I can make my own choices and experiment with my own health (that sounds odd, but that's basically what it has been). I try not to get sucked into the fads as much, though it's hard when you think you see everyone doing it.

I generally like Panera, but whenever I see one of their "eat clean" commercials, I get all ranty.

I think what's especially insidious about "clean eating" is that it promotes itself on the basis not of how you will look but how you will feel, and who can argue with that? <br />And family attitudes towards food when you're growing up can be tremendously formative. I think I got the best parts of the Singapore attitude towards food (nourishing and healthy home-cooked meals, occasional and heartily enjoyed meals out, a deep appreciation of the labour that goes into what we eat, fruit for dessert, an adventurous palate) and few of the downsides!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08281336239355942919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988009473800206542.post-42932492179685372022017-08-14T11:32:38.396+08:002017-08-14T11:32:38.396+08:00So weird - I had JUST closed that article out befo...So weird - I had JUST closed that article out before opening up my Feedly! I see clean eating as just another fad... and industry. I am certainly not the healthiest, skinniest, or most athletic, but I do very much enjoy my food., even if much of it is not "clean".
