Feelin’ Alright, Paleo Style
Now how damn long do you think I had to search to bring this to you cavemen & cavewomen? Hah! I’m proud of at this point. If you check out some of their other UTube selections, you’ll see they perform shirtless often. And even rock stars today are lean. (Can you be a fat Rock……...

What a Month, Week, Day
And none of it would be possible without the great readers of this blog. It sounds almost trite to say it — ’cause everyone always says it — but it’s true and it must be acknowledged. I’m gonna take the rest of the day off, as it’s my 49th today, and I’ve already gotten an……...

The Latest News in Modern Ignorance: Switch to Low-Fat Milk Lowers Calories for NYC Schoolkids
Let’s get this right out of the way: Mayor Michael Bloomberg is a menace to society. He’s also an ignoramus who listens only to conventional "wisdom" ("Modern Ignorance") from "health authorities" on the take, being propped up by drug companies and synthetic-industrial "food" manufacturers. Then there’s the lazies who man the New York City Department of……...

Rack of Lamb Sous Vide
First off, for those of you who don’t have a Sous Vide and aren’t getting one soon, here’s a previous post with rack of lamb made in a traditional way. Rack of lamb done properly is perhaps my favorite food. And making it in the Sous Vide Supreme was just to die for. Easily my……...

Trouble in Raw Vegan Paradise?
Well, my Google alert for vitamin K2 — of all things — turned up this interesting blog post at The Fresh Network Blog. Why the shift away from veganism in the raw world? As you may already have noticed, a big change has taken place in the raw food world, and this change is ongoing….…...

Dog Pile: Join the Fun
At "Livestrong." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cite high LDL cholesterol as one of the risk factors for heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. Even with these startling facts, Americans still can’t seem to shake high-cholesterol foods from their diet. Instead of trying to cut out……...

Quick Update
So in order to really get this book project off the ground, I’m using a cool application called Scrivener. Now while the book is not at all going to be just the blogs I’ve written, a lot of them are useful — posts and comments — and so I’m pulling them into the app one……...

Halibut – For The Helluvit – Sous Vide
So on the OEvolve list (note: As I’m a human-animal anarchist, I’m only a lurker there, per the membership guidelines) one person had posted an experience with halibut sous vide; Diana, list owner, tried and liked, and so I embarked this afternoon to collect suitable halibut.

Getting Crazier and Crazier
Admin note: Well, according to Sitemeter and Google Analytics, I broke 100,000 visits for the month of January and 200,000 page views, a huge all-time record buster. That was sometime in the wee hours of last night. Onward & Upward, I suppose. I’m now working on my book in earnest and have committed myself to……...

Conform Or Be Cast Out!
Doesn’t matter if you’re low-carb, paleo, or somewhere in between. You’re weird! You’re a geek!

Three Must-Hear Podcasts: Real Farming, Cancer, & Statins

Chicken, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy (and how bad are carbs?)
Below I’m going to discuss the role of carbohydrate in the diet; and what better way to kick it off than with some food porn? This is a dish I named "LSD Chicken." Here’s how you make it, along with a discussion of why I named it that. Briefly, it’s the recipe of Owsley "The……...

Saturated Fat and Coronary Heart Disease, Part V: The “Science”
Before I begin, I’ll simply point you to part one of the series and you’ll find the links to all the other parts there. So it’s time to discuss the "science" behind the idea that saturated fat intake leads to heart disease. Let’s begin with pure observational epidemiology and then move on to the more……...

Shyam Kolvekar: The Most Stupidest Man in The World
Here’s an idea. How about the butter trade groups get together and create a new ad campaign featuring this heart surgeon dingbat.

Extensive Notes on Good Calories, Bad Calories
Toban Wiebe at Higher Thought has put together an excellent resource. Gary Taubes’s masterpiece—Good Calories, Bad Calories—is the most important book ever written on diet and health. Drawing from an astounding body of research, Taubes challenges the conventional wisdom head on and decisively wins (the book is perhaps overkill.) He shows that carbohydrates are the……...

A Sultan of Swing commits Crime of the Century
A clever tile for my next rock installment, if I do say so. You all know Sultans of Swing, but I’m going to abbreviate it, just the Mark Knopfler solo at the end.

Filet Sous Vide; Sauce Blue Cheese & Celery Root Puree
