The other option would be to increase the federal deficit by importing massive amounts of food from Peru and Chili. But I am sure those arguing for "energy independence" will jump on the bandwagon for "food independence"? (The above does not imply support or opposition to energy independence in any form. I just don't have enough time to think about that at the moment.) Good point Grit. The other option would be to increase the federal deficit by importing massive amounts of food from Peru and Chili.

Thus, in an attempt to be a good host, I've developed several suitable recipes over the years that cater to their dietary requirements, yet still have enough taste to be worth eating. This experience has taught me that, while one could exist with this limitation, it would cost at least twice as much on the food budget to make it palatable. It's also important to note that, in order to accomplish this culinary feat, it would be necessary to utilize massive amounts of hot house agriculture and/or large quantities of frozen vegetables to make up for the lack of variety during the cold months. The result, I suspect, would be more of a strain on our resources, and the environment, than our current meat eating ways. the Grit Hi t,
