Last Sunday was a good day! Mike Small from Fife Diet Project was a brilliant speaker in any aspect. And a few participants signed up to join the project.

Eating local food, I have to say I disagree with eating 100% local food - that's very localism for me. And since I'm not a very local person and always appreciate the chance to experience food from difference places - and at the same time do not have much money to travel, I do agree with Fife Diet's programme of having a certain percentage of your food from local resource - for me, maybe 60% is a workable number. This is a very strong support for local food producers and also remind people where and when what grows.

The soup was brilliant as usual - some people were held back by the Oatmeal Soup, but it's with different veggies and milk, very nice and healthy!!

For the next week's event (Sun 28th Feb), Alex invited Jane Stewart from St Andrews Cheese Farm to lead the discussion and we will be serving a Celery, Apple and 'Anster' Cheese soup! Limited Places left!
