I am thankful I have a family (including a vegetarian who is hugely overweight and doesn’t eat green vegetables but I love her — my daughter) who accepts that I don’t eat the mashed potatoes, green bean casserole with cheese and fried onions, the pumpkin pie, rolls, sourdough bread, cranberry relish, chips etc. I was no doubt a buzzkill to some extent — but maybe not because all my family dug into all that stuff without any worries. Sure I felt a little superior but I’ve been around long enough to know 10 yeas from now all the dietary science will flip again. Cigarettes and sugar will be the new health foods!
