Poll : Do you eat the skin of an apple or do you peel it ? I choose the first option, because I am lazy and because most of the vitamins are in the skin (but the pesticides also)


Give the apple a good wash. it should be OK. Luckily I am in London and can get organic apple in Tesco or Sainsbury.

I did not know that today was 'Eat A Red Apple Day' but I already have plenty of apples :D

I would not have gone shopping today - far too cold out there - it has been well under freezing for the past few days, dropping to MINUS 10c overnight :shock:

I always peel my apples - when I do not have a young man to peel them for me :ymdevil:

I don't know if red apples sold in Duhok are organic. Probably not, Turkey, Iran and Kurdistan enjoy pesticides. But I wash it and eat it.

Today is Fritters Day, so Fritters Apples could be good. But I am sure that Fritters are an Evil food for Londoner. :-D

Yes indeed. It is highly oxidated or oxidized. It is full of free radicals and cause major diseases including cancer.

That was the view of an expert with over 40 years experience that fried food my be tasty but toxic. It kills on the long term. Because when you fry food it reacts with air and easily oxidized. Body oxidation speeds up ageing and causes diseases. That is way every one looking to get sources of anti oxidants to neutralise body oxidation.

Cooked a delicious chicken with orange broth. So easy to do : roasted a chicken (cut in 4 pieces) in a sauce pan with oil and ginger, then added water with an orange cut in 4 (with the skin),

Let simmering around 2 h. The broth became saffron and has a delicious flavor of orange but not sweet as with marmelade.

I am sure these oranges are organic, because they come from my own garden. :-D

All raw and fresh foods are full of anti-oxidants, enzymes. Old food lose their enzymes gradually because of oxidation. Cooked food lose their anti-oxidants at 48c.

Two hours cooking!!! :o . I think that is how artificial flavours made.

Today is my bad day. I am visiting my grand children, who will kidnap me to toys r us, where I have to pay a ransom, two toys, to get released. :-D . They do that to me at the end of each month.

That ks not 'artificial' flavors, lol, but the result of 'mitonné', giving a chemical transformation. The more a meal is cooked the best it is concerning what we call in French 'ragout'.

I am sure your grand-children are not very fond of your healthy recipes :-D
