Another Simple Question: The Paleo Diet is Not The Way to a Healthy Future For Whom?
An Anthropologist by the name of Barbara J King got a gig on NPR to ostensibly critique “The Paleo Diet.” The problem is: the problem is baked into the cake. We live in the Neolithic Zoo Human, where everyone’s problems are your problems and everyone’s expenses are your expenses…while everyone’s well being is theirs alone,……...

And Why Are You Paleo?
Sometimes I’ll put up a post in an euphoric buzz of exuberance — in the act of writing it — and then begin to regret it. …Never seriously enough to take it down, materially edit or qualify it. Now and then, I don’t get the comment enthusiasm I was expecting, but that always goes with……...

Standing Firmly Against “Everything but the Kitchen Sink” Omelets
When people order an omelet with 6 or 7 ingredients at a restaurant, or relate to me the one they made at home and how many different things they put in it, I’m always left to wonder when they’re going to learn to cook a real omelet. Eggs are the primary ingredient, by definition. And……...

The Logic of Paying for Other People’s Values
I just got out of the car, listening over the last few minutes to NPR; to some program on the complex machinations of food stamps.
