My new column in the San Francisco Chronicle

July 16, 2008

I start a new column today - Food Matters - in the San Francisco Chronicle’s Food section. It’s a Q and A, with room for comments on the online version. I will answer a question or two whenever it runs (how often? I’m not sure). This first one deals with the editors’ question: “What’s the most pressing nutrition issue today, and why?” In a word: calories.

And while we talking about calories, today’s New York Times printed my letter about  last week’s post on the 500-calorie cookie recipe.

  2. Speakig of these 500-calorie cookies, do people stop at eating just one per serving? Or do they continue to eat a handful of several cookies in spite of their size and richness?
