Quinoa Beet Salad – JennifersKitchen

Violin03/07/2023 62 Views

Let me be very clear. I do not like beets. I’ve spent over fifty years disliking beets.

I’ve tried them boiled (gag-inducing), roasted (almost tolerable, but no), raw (the additional chewing required just prolongs the misery), and picked (where’s the bathroom?).

To me, beets taste like garden dirt laced with a little bit of sugar. Interestingly, there is validity to that perception. Beets contain a naturally-occurring compound called geosmin, and geosmin gives beets their dirt-like . . . er. . . earthy flavour.

Some people like this earthy flavor.

I’m not one of them.

July 1, 2023 · 2:15 PM

I found a review article at Animal Frontiers that makes the argument in favor of meat consumption. The authors admit little focus on the downsides of eating meat. I’ve been cutting back on my meat consumption out of sympathy for the animals. Here are some of the key points verbatim:

Aspects of human anatomy, digestion, and metabolism diverged from other primates, indicating evolutionary reliability on, and compatibility with, substantial meat intake. Implications of a disconnect from evolutionary dietary patterns may contribute to today’s burden of disease, increasing the risk for both

Valley News – Valley News Forum for July 2, 2023: ‘Call to open-arms’

Violin02/07/2023 84 Views

‘Call to open-arms’

As reported in the Valley News, Dartmouth Health has laid off 75 of its 10,000 workers in a cost-saving move (“DH lays off 75, cuts 100 unfilled jobs,” June 10). One casualty was chaplain Frank Macht, head of “Spiritual Health,” an inspired teacher to many, including myself.

However painful, it is, of course, logical that a hospital in financial distress would value the practicalities of medical treatment above something so vague as “spiritual health.” And, of course, those medical procedures are what insurance is inclined to reward. Who, after all, can measure one word of thoughtfulness, attach
