The Experiment

So, I decided to spend a week eating foods that are food. If you havent read In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto, then you may not understand. The concept is to eat foods that are natural and minimally processed. I may speak more about this later.

My experiment began with a trip to a farmers market, a few "big box" grocery stores, and a New Seasons. I did not spend considerably more than normal, and when I looked at the food for the coming week I was a bit skeptical, but I ran with it.

Being it is now Wednesday, I am well into the experiment and it is easy. In fact, I love it. I feel good, my food tastes good, and amazingly I have a smaller appetite. Weird.

So here is a list of some foods I have eaten in the past 2.5 days. Seems increadible.
