taste life, plate food
A Forgetful Flavor Philosophy
Forget full by tasting life and plating food. Listen to the body for hunger cues to eat rather than emotion. Americans eat until they are “full” but why not until they are “not hungry”? &
& Kudos to Michael Pollan ; )
Live mindfully in the present moment when at the table to taste food, acknowledging^ the temporary, fleeting feeling of taste on the tongue.
^ and hopefully enjoying
Remember to practice gratitude for the food on your plate. Food is energy and food is medicine, but food is also in short supply in many places around the globe. Be thankful when you can relieve your hunger.
