It's ridiculous!

Actually, our cave-dwelling ancestors ate a much wider array of foods than we do. Consider that they had no agriculture, so no large harvests of any one food. Grains were especially hard to come by. They scatter-shot most meals, a little of this, a little of that.

I easily eat "5 a day", probably much more. I was raised in a vegetarian household, and I'm trying to eat less carbs -- that pretty much leaves me with veggies. Good thing I like them!

We signed up for a half-share in a CSA farm this year. I can't wait to get my first shipment. It's scheduled to start on June 4th. It'll be a bit like Iron Chef, looking at the "secret ingredients" every week! I'm going to enjoy the challenge, I think. I can also get grass-pastured beef, eggs, butter and honey from them.

Maybe I should start a picture thread for it?
