Dr Grandpa, writing a guest blog, introduces a cause and effect model to show Part 1 of a way to consider the full, or true costs of the food we buy and eat. He uses a graphic and explains how the benefits of government subsidized foods and health care have social costs in taxes and public health problems.

Dr. Grandma shares a rationale for eating a Mediterranean-style diet to get healthy antioxidants (and lots more). In addition, she shares a recipe for roasted root vegetables and some root vegetable identification pictures.

Dr. Grandpa, who’s Ph.D. is in psychology, tells us a bit about hedonics and the hyperpalatability of American Industrial food as compared with yummy real whole, non-processed foods.

Dr. Grandma shares feelings toward shopping and hints for navigating the grocery aisles.

In his first Guest Blogging post, Dr. Grandpa recounts his adventures in something he is calling “Foodland”, a term referring to the marvellous mixture of good and bad food offerings that give so much choice and abundance to the consumer, but at a cost.
