Unsatisfactory diet ...
... and dealing with it.
Following on from "Introducing the Haggis, here's a brief extract from the Preface:
"The free and open hospitality which characterise Scots everywhere may be found in different forms in other civilised countries. As the march of civilisation continues over family unity, community spirit and dietary self-care, at least some countries are tackling the issue of a good national diet. Scotland is amongst them. It is suggested, however, that Scotland was subjected to an unsatisfactory diet during its history."
Is Wales amongst them?
The extent to which a second parallel can be assumed relating to the last sentence depends very much on the interest and reaction of readers.
The question of tackling the issue of a good national diet is a main aim in relation to Wales.
A different sort of parallel is in my second book.
Are We Really What We Eat: The Thinker’s Book of Food
Man is what he eats – in German eats and is are puns. “Being is the same as eating,” (p 28) “Human beings have an appetite for the foods that symbolize the type of person they want to be.” (p 29) The child is father to the man. (p36) Self esteem (p63)
