Food Rules #24


Pollan includes the Chinese proverb: "Eating what stands on one leg [mushrooms and plant foods] is better than eating what stands on two legs [fowl], which is better than eating what stands on four legs [cows, pigs, and other mammals]."

Hmmm...no mention of fish? Either way, I may sound like a broken record, but when choosing to eat those things on 2 or 4 legs, try to choose an option that is raised as close to you as possible, using the most humane and sustainable methods, and less of it.

I'm looking forward to blogging about tomorrow's rule!
