I couldn’t pass up commenting on a July 2, 2011, recipe by EatingWell editor Jessie Price.\u00a0\u00a0Her recipe for deviled eggs is found on Shine from Yahoo<\/a>. The problem\u00a0became\u00a0clear\u00a0in the second paragraph where she says, “Popular as these two-bite appetizers are, they\u2019re not typically healthy. Classic deviled-egg recipes are loaded with fat and calories.”\u00a0 Now, in my opinion, deviled eggs are wonderful, healthy, and very nutritious, besides being just plain delicious.\u00a0 Guess how\u00a0she\u00a0“improves”\u00a0her deviled eggs.\u00a0 For a recipe\u00a0using a\u00a0dozen eggs (makes 24 halves), to save fat and calories,\u00a0Ms. Price\u00a0throws away<\/em><\/strong> 4 (8 halves)\u00a0of the egg yolks<\/strong><\/em>!!!\u00a0 Yes, she discards one third<\/em><\/strong> of the most nutritious part of the\u00a0eggs–the yolks–where most of the vitamins, especially the B vitamins are.\u00a0 As a substitute for the discarded yolks\u00a0(which she says no one will notice) she adds some nonfat cottage cheese.\u00a0 Now there’s nothing wrong with cottage cheese (but it’s certainly not more nutritious than egg yolk), if<\/em><\/strong> it were made with\u00a0whole unprocessed\u00a0milk, but that’s not what she used.\u00a0 She\u00a0used highly processed nonfat cottage cheese.\u00a0 Ms. Price also uses low-fat mayonnaise,\u00a0probably also a\u00a0highly processed product made with\u00a0still more\u00a0unhealthy substitutes\u00a0so that it feels and tastes like real food but\u00a0isn’t real food.\u00a0\u00a0 And they call these “EatingWell Deviled Eggs!”<\/p>\n

Isn’t this exactly\u00a0what most food processors do–substitute\u00a0highly processed, less nutritious\u00a0foods,\u00a0or even non-foods with unpronouncable names, for real foods?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
