This week on Food For Thought, the 100-Mile Diet. Pictured at left is Jenn Lamm from the Nanaimo 100-Mile Diet challenge, with some Vancouver Island kiwi fruit harvested last year.
I’m a little under the weather this week, trying to recover from a bad cold and cough I caught in Crete last week, but I will update the blog with more links, audio and info on the 100-Mile Diet book in a few hours. Okay, it’s been more than a few hours, but here is the audio file from this week’s show.
The 100-Mile Diet , a Year of Local Eating, is a book by James MacKinnon and Alisa Smith, based on their experience from March 2005 to March 2006 of eating only ingredients produced or procured within 100 miles of their homes in downtown Vancouver. You can click on the link above to order the book from amazon.ca and save 37 percent off the cover price! You can also learn more about their experiences by visiting the 100-Mile Diet website. I’ll be constructing an All You Can Eat podcast based on my interviews with them, so make sure you check that portion of my blog.
Going to Crete also meant I missed a posting for Food For Thought last week on pizza, so I will try to get that audio on a separate posting later this week.
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. It is always great pleasure to read your posts.
