Interesting.

My wife is a naturopathic doctor. I'm pretty well marinated in every possible permutation of diet and nutrition from a clinician's point of view. Yet it wasn't from her that I got the notion of eating beef twice a week or less.

And you know? That's fuckin' easy. Not only that, but it makes you only buy beef you value.

Apropos of nothing, we got a pressure cooker for christmas. Which means the beans that used to take all afternoon to cook after soaking all night the night before now cook in half an hour. And hey - 3 cups of rice and 2 cups of beans equals five meals for about $3. We do that maybe once a week.
