So where do I get my woolly mammoth steaks. What was the life expectancy of early hominids? I don't know about Maine Blue Berries, but wild blueberries in Nova Scotia are just as sweet if not sweeter than the store bought ones.

Where in a reputable peer-reviewed journal can one find an article store bought food is less nutritious than wild food. The purpose of fruit is to be eaten, the seeds passing through the digestive system intact to be planted with a little fertilizer. The sweeter the fruit, the more animals are attracted, the greater chance of the plant dispersing its progeny.

As far as I can tell taste takes a second seat to looks with commercial produce. Produce is picked before its time so it can be transported unbruised. It doesn't taste as good as the stuff off a backyard tree.

My daughter is autistic. We have her on a cassein and gluten free diet. It seems to have done her some good; her attentiveness has increased and her perserveration has dropped. My wife swears it has; I lean more towards non-casual coincidence, but I don't want to give her bread pudding in case I'm wrong. You won't believe how many things have gluten and cassein. Gluten is not naturally found in corn, but it's in corn flakes. Most soy cheeses have cassein in them so they melt like dairy cheeses. It is very difficult to keep on such a diet, taking all grains out of the diet would be harder still.

Autism is a multi-genetic disorder; i.e, more than one gene is involved. Latest evidence is that the genes express themselves about the first month of pregnancy. In the future it will be detectable via amniocentesis, much like trisomy 13 is today. For a parent it becomes noticeable somewhere between 15 months and two years.

So what does this have to do with cassein and gluten. There are double-blind studies which indicate some children do better on such a diet.

I like to think the experience has made me a better person. Before, when a developmentally-disabled child walked into a room I'd act like the kid was contagious.

Blah, I did not work my way to the top of the food chain to be a vegatarian.
