Welcome!

Welcome to Ms. Morrison's E/LA You Are What You Eat Nutrition Blog


First question,

We have just finished up Food Rules by Michael Pollan. What food rules are part of your family? (good or bad)

  1. From my mom, desserts are a work of art. Using real whipping cream is worth the time.
    Homemade is always better.

    From dad, bacon grease is a great flavoring for food :)

  3. From my mom;I don't care if you're already full, I worked for it so you eat it
    From dad;Don't eat products containing High Fructose corn syrup.
    From me;Extra butter is the best
    If you have food you don't like, just put alot of ketchup and don't think about it.^_^

  8. We don't really have one, we try to a eat different things eat day. My dad normally cooks but sometimes we eat out because we are always in a rush to get to sport practices so we just eat fastfood. :(

  9. From my mom she says to eat whole grains over white grains. My dad say if we go out to fast food try to pick healthier foods.

  10. My family only eats out when it is somebody's birthday. So I rarely eat out. I don't eat fastfood and neither does my mom, but my brother and sister love it... My mom and I try to cook from scratch most of the time, but sometimes when we are in a rush we just microwave something. I also love to make homemade desserts!

  13. Definetly break the rules every once in a while. My dad is trying to get us to cut back on high fructose corn syrup and unhealthy sweeteners. We use honey once in a while. Thought we usually dont stop early.

  17. My family rarely eats out. It used to be maybe once a week but know we cut down to once maybe if im lucky every 3 monthes. A food rule from my dad would be eat the healthiest thing on the plate first then go in that order. I would always tell him what do you do at a place like Mcdonalds when it is all Mcnasties? From my mom she would always say eat the meat then veggies but never really had any fruits. So our family has very good food rules because they wanted to start eating really healthy since my dads cholsteral was high.
