Plenty

An interesting book to be sure. I am fascinated by people who "live off the land" or eat locally. I always WANT to do this but.....

Alisa Smith and James Mackinnon set out to eat for a year on a "100 mile Diet". That meant that everything, yes everything that they consumed had to originate within a 100 mile radius of their home in Vancouver. That meant if something had been produced locally but had ingredients that came from farther afield then it wasn't to be. A lot of work to be sure.

Enjoyed the book, inspires me but I won't be living off the land any time soon.

  1. So...does Diet Coke originate with 100 miles of Vancouver?? If not, I'd be screwed.
