Somewhere like Spain or Italy it's a leisurely family occasion, they don't eat pizza out of the box in front of the telly. I wonder if it contributes to better health. We constantly hear about the dangers of fast food, but what if it's not only the ingredients of it, but the whole fact that it's supposed to be "fast"? Why should a meal be fast anyway?Sannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124283361844607678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-46556540931155503562019-05-14T04:25:01.563-07:002019-05-14T04:25:01.563-07:00That's true, and in fact, most tropical countr...That's true, and in fact, most tropical country meals, whether from the Caribbean or India or Indochina, are all warm meals...Will S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02714519301979594160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-41978178518383147132019-05-14T00:15:05.180-07:002019-05-14T00:15:05.180-07:00Yeah, I agree, like sometimes we do crave ice crea...Yeah, I agree, like sometimes we do crave ice cream or cold milk or something. Yet, an interesting thing is that in Africa, when it's always warm, their traditional foods always seem to be stews of some kind and they have less cancer, too. It must be a factor? I have discovered another benefit of warm food - you can't eat quickly, so you'll have to take you time for a meal, which is, supposedly, beneficial.

May not be the healthiest but I can't help but be influenced by my body temperature...Will S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02714519301979594160noreply@blogger.com
