How many of us were told (as a child) or tell our children to "eat everything on your plate"?

  • olivettefarm My Venezuelan mother would not let me leave the table until I cleared my plate. I'm almost 30
    now and I can tell she still wants me to when I come visit her :)
  • JenniferEmilson This can be dangerous. An inner dialogue is created where even if full there will be a feeling of guilt or necessity to clean the plate. And yet our bodies are saying, 'I'm full, don't need more.'
  • ziyizero This can be bad since one might become use to eat a large portion and then can stop from eating a lot, or one might starts disliking eating.

  • Udi What is Dashi?
  • annefood @Udi it's a Japanese broth made from water, kombu (kelp) and bonito flakes (dried tuna). The nice thing is that you can make it without fresh ingredients.
If you were a food, what would you be and why?

Alaskan natives bring their cultural cuisine to more people. “Where’s the blubber?” is not a phrase you hear often in restaurant kitchens."
I was in need of a quick breakfast this morning, so I just threw some sprouted bread in the toaster. What are some of your favorite toppings?

Sweet beets with ricotta salata and rich toasty hazelnuts are a great foil for these bitter dandelion greens!
  • JenniferEmilson I still like chard, chicory or even radicchio (even though it's not green!!)
Love hard boiled eggs, but have a hard time taking the shell off. Any good tricks to share with me?

  • sugardetoxme Don't use fresh ones (unfortunately) and shock with cold water right after boiling.
  • sugardetoxme Also putting eggs in a closed Tupperware and shaking vigorously to shatter the shell works
  • lauren I was told salt will do the trick!

Raw vegan etc Papaya ideas?
10yr
Papaya are SOOOOOO healthy! But, to me, they smell and taste like feet. Looking for some great healthy recipes that mask the flavor, while saving 'the healthy.' 😊💖
  • sugardetoxme Oh man too funny. My friend always said that the texture of papaya made him think of beaten flesh. Turned me off for a while. But now I love it simply squeezed with fresh lime or as a papaya sorbet!
  • katewilson When I think of papaya, I think of dessert. Coconut with papaya and mango is nice, so maybe blended into a smoothie or frozen into a Popsicle?
  • katewilson Or papaya jam on sprouted bread
