I finished The Case Against Sugar, by Gary Taubes. Last week I was reading Pure, White, and Deadly, also an anti-sugar book.

I've immersed myself in nutritional books recently. This book is another in my series which I'm calling "everything we 'know' about food is a lie". If you want a good starting point, I recommend The Big Fat Surprise, by Nina Teicholtz

I was just at a Christmas event last night, a potluck. It's really astounding how much sugar people eat. Even though it was supposed to be a dinner-type potluck, 80% of what people brought was sweets, of all descriptions. And a few raw veggie platters, with seed-oil sauce for dips.

Avoiding sugar and seed oils as well is tough - I'm finding I need to "pre-eat" before these types of events.
