AND

i forgot to mention the project i'm working on regarding processed foods vs whole foods; about how americans don't cook as much anymore and how unhealthy they are as a result of it. i think i'm going to end up trying to present cooking as a convenience, which is really interesting, and i'm pretty excited about it. i think tyler's pretty much at one end of the spectrum as far as cooking goes, preparing almost all of his own meals from scratch. i'm somewhere in the middle, though close to his side: i cook pretty frequently but i do rely on some prepared foods, like frozen stir-fry vegetables from trader joe's. i'm excited to see how this project turns out, especially in the context of this blog, but for now here's some links my profs sent that i thought might be interesting:
