Your bones are not just made of the last meal you had, but the meals that you’ve had across many years. By looking at the composition of those teeth, researchers can say that something was a large component of the diet. This tells us a lot about how hominins lived and what they ate.
I remember how difficult it was to resist the food served on the sets of a movie directed by Abbas and Mustan. They love food, and I could not resist digging into their dabba for some wonderful meals.
Cooking simple, delicious meals at home is the key to maintaining your family’s healthy eating habits.
When I was 12, my mum put us in a summer camp meant for children from low-income families. It was in upstate New York where we had to live in tents, fetch water, cook our meals, and even dig our own toilet bowls.
Mum was a nurse and worked night shifts, but cooked all our evening meals and breakfasts.
Even if we give parents all the information they need and we improve school meals and build brand new supermarkets on every corner, none of that matters if when families step into a restaurant, they can’t make a healthy choice.
Sometimes I don’t eat all day, then have four meals between 8 P. M. and 4 A. M.
I won’t eat frozen food and I like to know where my food has come from. I don’t like anything going in my body that’s from a packet. I used to eat microwave ready meals, because we were so busy, but now I like to eat clean.
If I had a time machine I would go back 30 years and show up at my grandmother’s apartment before the gargantuan meals she would serve and I would help her.
Buttermilk’s palate-cleansing tartness is one reason it’s used a lot in southern India, where meals often end with a small bowl of the stuff served with plain rice and pickles.
I love fresh vegetables and we always include them in our meals. I don’t force my kids to eat asparagus, but they do eat peas, broccoli, and carrots.
At this point in my life I am just about enjoying my free time and my downtime and that’s what is about for us. My job is about making your job easier. I take a lot of pride in the quality of what I present, especially in ‘Money Saving Meals.’
Back in the really olden days, dinner was seldom a ceremonial event for U.S. families. Only the very wealthy had a separate dining room. For most, meals were informal, a kind of rolling refueling; often only the men sat down.
I don’t really desire things. I prefer to spend my money on experiences, on meals or travel.
I need quick, easy, and healthy meals that can power me through the day. I also try to eat locally grown and organic food as much as possible – it’s the best for me and the environment.
One-pot meals make a lot of sense… because so much of what people hate about cooking is really the cleanup, the mess, the grease.
In Ethiopia, food is often looked at through a strong spiritual lens, stronger than anywhere else I know. It’s the focal point of weddings, births and funerals and is a daily ceremony from the preparation of the meal and the washing of hands to the sharing of meals.
I don’t cook – I can cook – but I’m not very good. I like being asked over for dinner, because she can’t cook either. We would starve if it weren’t for modern technology. I know how to work a microwave, but love home cooked meals.
You always assume for some strange reason that you need three meals a day.
We spend millions of dollars per year supplying more than adequate meals and a Koran to every detainee along with a prayer rug that meets their religious standards.
I was mainly raised by a working mum who didn’t have much time or inclination for making food. So I had three or four basic meals: fish fingers and a tomato; a packet scotch egg and a tomato; pasta with a tin of tomatoes; and extra mild plastic-y cheddar chopped into cubes with bits of cucumber.
When you’re trying to lose weight, one of the most important things you can do is eat three decent meals a day so that you’re not so hungry that you can’t get food off your mind. Habit and hunger have long been the basic, insidious enemies of the overweight. We can’t fight hunger, but we can fight habit.
My mom put me away at 7. I enjoyed it… Being in institutions, I got three meals a day, clothes.
I try to plan our meals for the week on Sunday.
I’m a takeout kind of girl. Whole Foods prepares most of my meals.
I think that my love of cooking grew out of my love of reading about cooking. When I was a kid, we had a bookcase in the kitchen filled with cookbooks. I would eat all my meals reading about meals I could have been having.
As I was growing up, all meals, including breakfast, were family occasions, and you all sat down to eat together – and you had to finish everything as well.
Everybody makes money for a living, but most of us actually do something that has a point, in addition to just making money. We examine and treat patients, we teach students, we draw up contracts and wills, we write for newspapers, magazines, and web sites, we clean floors, or we serve meals.
The critical part with meal spacing is that you stabilize your hormones so that you do not have those spikes in insulin that occur when you eat large meals.
When times are bad, people like to lose themselves in the sheer glamour of another period: beautiful wardrobes, magnificent meals served in elegant settings.
I abhor averages. I like the individual case. A man may have six meals one day and none the next, making an average of three meals per day, but that is not a good way to live.
I’ve cooked plenty of meals when I was sad, lonely, depressed, angry, bored, and/or under the weather. My primary aim in these circumstances is generally to cheer myself up, to fill my stomach with something warm so I can feel comforted and fed, usually just with a quick soup or an omelet.
Investing in your long-term health means cultivating the skills to prepare your own meals, developing healthy eating habits and a willingness to make time to exercise. The earlier you embrace these habits, the healthier you will be in your 50s, 60s and beyond.
In theory, food writing is an aid or a prelude to actual meals: you read a recipe, and then you cook. In practice – in a ‘paradox’ that Michael Pollan, among others, has identified – our current gastronomic fantasies, particularly on TV, have coincided with a decline in home cooking.
Boxing is individual, although there’s a team concept because you need a great corner, you need a great trainer, you need a great prep man, you need all of these things, but it’s more of a Mano a Mano; it’s more you versus me. I miss that time in training camp and Dad and Mom cooking meals. It was one big family.
Whatever your meals are, they must fill you up, do not skip breakfast or lunch because you’re going to get hungry and then you’re going to be reaching for snacks that are sugary, salty, fatty, that won’t fill you up, and then you’ll be reaching for them again.
The backwoodsmen are muttering about making Britain’s draconian union laws – already among the toughest in Europe – harsher still. And parts of the media will continue to attack public service pensions, as if school meals staff, refuse collectors and healthcare workers have no right to a decent retirement.
It may seem counterintuitive to some people to take an entire morning or afternoon to prepare food for the week, but believe me, it’s not. You’ll even find that you eat much healthier when you’ve planned your meals ahead.
Is there anything sadder than the foods of the 1950s? Canned, frozen, packaged concoctions, served up by the plateful, three meals per day, in an era in which the supermarket was king, the farmer’s market was, well, for farmers, and the word ‘locavore’ sounded vaguely like a mythical beast.
I love having wine with my meals. And if I splurge, I’m going to splurge big, because if I deny my cravings, it just ends up backfiring on me, you know?
My parents came from little, so they made a choice to give a lot: buying turkeys for homeless shelters at Thanksgiving, delivering meals to people in hospices, giving spare change to those asking for it.
For the price of a couple of Happy Meals, you can buy a digital textbook and stop your child from having to carry around a six-pound book.
A ‘healthy diet’ includes meals rich in whole grains, vegetables, nuts and fruits. Lean protein such as fish and chicken are recommended, and processed meats, such as bologna or cured ham and bacon, should be avoided.
I don’t believe in extreme diets. For me, staying away from sugar and processed foods, eating home-cooked meals and exercising regularly is the key.
I make it a point to have my meals after every two hour gap and am very particular about it.
The ads that podcasts manage to sell tell you a lot about who they think is listening. They include services that promise to make your investment portfolio ethical, deliver exotic, ready meals to your home, or guarantee better sleep thanks to luxury bed linen.
The best part of being with the Warriors has been the team camaraderie, the team meals, the team pranks, the bond we share.
I’m a huge fan of curries, chillies and stews and it is still possible to lose weight and eat hearty meals.
The Food Network and the Cooking Channel have so many viewers. And, because there’s no violence, some of that audience is children. So, I think we have a responsibility to educate parents how to produce healthy meals for their families.
