Goodies Without The Guilt

sandra there is a reason that things like heavy cream, buter, and heavy doses of sugar are prevalent in our menu, because they do taste better. I applaud your want to use lighter ingredients but to deny that some things do naturally taste better is childish.

I have trouble seeing anything healthy about the treats discussed in this column. Of course, eating smaller portions is a good choice, but maybe the real problem is our refusal to consider that lighter-tasting foods can be just as flavorful as those made with heavy cream, butter and heavy doses of sugar.

Men are far better chefs, cooks, and bakers, yet women get all the publicity, books, and movie deals. Suddenly women are cooking again at home? It's a freaking miracle. The feminists must be beside themselves over this alleged homemaking flip flop.
