Statistics are funny things easily spun, but there’s always a story behind the numbers.

• 50 years ago, the average American family spent 2% of food dollars in restaurants
• 25 years ago, the average American family spent 25% of food dollars on restaurant meals.
• Today over 65% of family food dollars are spent at restaurants—especially fast food eateries.

It’s commonly known that restaurants appeal to taste by adding thick, rich, unbalanced highly saturated fats to much of the food served.  Most burger joints use something less than a 70%/30% meat-to-fat ratio.  60/40%?   Tasty, but not healthy.

On the other hand, growing interest in organically grown produce and free range meats continues to drive down the costs of these unadulterated foods.  From 5% of market share three years ago, organic produce now claims over 20% of the market.  Support sustainable farming and ranching; shop local meat sources, take advantage of seasonal produce abundance, and retain their wholesome goodness using waterless cooking methods.

Inside the food friendly, cook-friendly, health-friendly beauty and durability of stainless steel waterless cookware is an attitude about food, diet and change, about reverence for nature’s complexity and appreciation of simpler values.  Eating a balanced diet daily helps avoid so many ills.  Did you know that a well balanced diet mollifies stress?  True, a stressed body (nutritionally malnourished) feeds a stressed mind.

For example, after a relatively restful and rejuvenating weekend it’s reasonable to assume Americans could handle the stress of a new workweek.   And yet:

• 80% of heart attacks occur 8:00am to 10:00am Monday mornings.
• 70% of strokes occur 8:00am to noon Monday mornings.

The mind is just a sail; the body is the ship.  Stay afloat!
Cook healthy, eat honestly, and thrive.
