Here is some of his best advice: If it came from a plant, eat it; if it was made in a plant, don’t; it’s not food if it arrived through the window of your car; it’s not food if it is called by the same name in every language (think Big Mac, Pringles); avoid food products with more than five ingredients; avoid foods you see advertised on television; don’t eat breakfast cereal that changes the colour of the milk; drink the spinach water; eat all the junk food you want, so long as you cook it yourself; have a glass of wine with dinner; stop eating before you are full; eat when you are hungry, not when you are bored; buy smaller plates and glasses; spend as much time enjoying the meal as you spent preparing it; eat meals.

“eat all the junk food you want, so long as you cook it yourself,”
Umm does this include chocolate brownies with:
250g chocolate
250g butter
5 eggs
1 1/4c cocoa
<1 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla essence?

It certainly does mean that – and I made gingerbread for the first time last night – came out OK.
does : ” <1 c flour" mean : " less than a cup of flour?"... I need precise recipes ;) (www.cookingforengineers.com)
