Thank you for the warning. I’ve met him here in San Diego. Nice guy but I’m glad you’ve saved me the taste test.

I thought your criticism of his post was misguided, as McDonald’s will be a valid target for criticism until it is gone forever; however, when you presented a cross-examination of facts, a purer yet more complex form of the truth was obtained. quite informative!!!

Haha, great post. I don’t think the elite foodies would take too kindly to your suggestion they eat very similar to the unwashed masses, i.e. the “proletariat”, at least when it comes to oatmeal.

Yes, the peels are a problem. Most of the phytic acid is in the peel.

Are unpeeled potatoes a problem or just a preference? WOndering because we are planning to add those back. I always liked the small ones, roasted.

I’ve tried cooking the hell out of all the brassicas as well as green beans. Unfortunately, only cabbage is tempered by cooking for me.

I am right there with you on the cabbage & brussels sprouts & you know what, probably broccoli too (I just don’t cook it enough to know)… my digestion to those foods is awful: super bloated, very painful… it’s unfortunate because I love them but… at least I can still eat green beans (knock on wood) cause they’re to die for!

I’ve seen Italian recipes for long cooked brocolli. Here’s one from Alice Waters

I’m not too sure about the buttermilk; I think I’ll try broth.

I’ve also read (and now can’t find) a study in AJCN about how cooking green beans for a very long time made their nutrients more bioavailable. The study looked at a wide variety of vegtables and cooking methods.
