And they must have been rich hippies. I am talking about the latest Canadian Food Guide. It's all nuts, fruit, vegetables and grains. Have you priced nuts lately? And salad out-of-season? Most young families -- even with both parents working -- would not be able to afford to eat like this. All the polls I've seen say your average "Joe" cannot, and will not, follow this diet.
When I was growing up, winter was all root vegetables and canned fruit. You never saw anything fresh and green in February and we all survived. I wonder what the Inuit would make of it? All they have to eat is blubber -- not a vegetable in sight. Ever. One of my Y buddies is a large-animal vet and genetic researcher, Dr. David C, who specializes in beef. I have asked him what he thinks and I'll let you know.
Health Canada is totally out-to-lunch, with no clue how the average family survives. As I said, hippies are in charge there.
