A LIFETIME OF GOOD COOKING

Take a look at what's on your kitchen shelves, on the counter, in the refrigerator: What do you see? You more than likely have a range of healthy foods right at hand: pasta, rice, potatoes, lettuce, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, oatmeal, apples . . .
As you learn more about what's healthy and what isn't, you'll be in for a pleasant surprise: You're already eating many healthy foods. As for the food that isn't - well, yes, some changes might be in order. Luckily, a lot of the "convenience" foods you like to depend on - cans of salty, fatty soup, stew, and hash - now have healthy counterparts. Making changes in the way you cook doesn't have to be traumatic!
In the past few years, many food companies have responded to increasing consumer demand by offering healthier food; it's now possible to find a growing number of alternatives to the kind of foods that were once the supermarket norm. No longer do you have to stick solely to health-food stores - although health-food stores are a real boon, and if you've never shopped at one because you thought you might not recognize the food, we'll take great delight in reeducating you! And today's supermarkets have rows and rows of better choices in all the important food groups; sometimes they're shelved with the traditional selections, sometimes with "dietetic" or "diabetic" foods, but don't let what they call it confuse you. Just be alert to the wide range of choices your neighborhood market already has to offer.
