One Week’s Food in December
I tried to sort everything recorded in my daily food logs into the categories defined in Hungry Planet but didn’t use exact measurements. Numbers in parentheses behind an item indicate the number of times said item was eaten, or a rough guess of how many portions of that item were eaten (note how I’m not even trying to count servings, just to give myself a little extra wiggle room for the amounts I didn’t measure even a little). As in the book, brand names are in italics; I think many of the items marked with a brand name could probably be considered prepared foods, as could noodles and even frozen peas. You’ll see plenty of notes in my “data” (boy is that ever a loosely-defined term here) about these and other ambiguities. Just about all the fresh vegetables are from our CSA farm, Groundwork Organics.
