Celebrity endorsements of food and drinks show that 80%+ are for junk food.

I knew the number was high, but this is pretty sad. I'm sure part of the issue is that healthier food options don't have budgets for celebrity endorsements.
  • darkchocolatepeanutbutter I don't like this trend at all. It reminds me of when celebrities endorsed cigarettes in advertisements. I'm glad Michelle Obama has celebrities endorsing fruits and veggies for her campaign but...
  • munchiemummy There should definitely be limitations on junk food advertising, just like there is for alcohol and cigarettes. Unfortunately, big food would put up a big fight.
  • etsummer I think it's harder too that junk foods are more branded. Easier to advertise Coca Cola than just 'zucchini' or 'peaches' in general.

  • reneeeats How do you prevent asparagus from wilting in he fridge? Any storage tips?
  • DietIDdietitian Yes! Wrap the asparagus in a damp tea towel or several damp paper towels and place it inside a plastic zipper bag in the refrigerator. If you're trying to avoid plastic, use large food storage...
  • Deaconess Will l all ways keep my asparagus in the refrigerator in a container with water they tend to keep for a week, but I use them within that time cause anything in the refrigerator will change over time

  • DianaO love this! We sometimes do stacks of grilled red pepper, mushrooms, and tomato with hummus in between each layer -- all over a bed of greens - delicious and SO easy!

Ditch the butter and syrup and try this version, which is far lower in sugar and saturated fat but higher in fiber and healthy fat. And you'll be satisfied with only one waffle! Just toast up a who...
  • salleya This is very doable! Love the alternative also! You are making breakfast a bit easier for me and that is just what i need. THANK YOU
  • johnathanlhuntgmailcom I am a huge peanut butter fan. This will be great for my son because he loves waffles as well. My wife and I will eat this with toast instead. I'm guessing whole grain is the way to go there too?

Quinoa, lentils, avocado, roasted beats, roasted chickpeas, with tomato-cucumber salsa. This delicious dinner came together in about 25 minutes, and it’s balanced and full of veggies!
  • annefood Agreed- I keep whole grains and beans in the pantry and when I don’t know what to do for dinner I just throw them in a bowl with a veggie or lettuce and some dressing.
  • msantiago I never thought of raising beets! I love beets any which way . Think I’ll try that! 🤔
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Yes! Super easy to roast. Just oil, salt, pepper and straight into the oven.
