Thanksgiving Week Already, and Look Who's Running
We'll be eating T-Day Dinner on Saturday this year because of schedule constraints. But that won't slow me down from eating turkey—wild, or steroid-injected-pen-raised-protein/hormone-fed. Either way...I'm game. The craziest fad, and I do say fad, is deep-fried turkey, which is becoming a mainstay in the redneck diet of Mid-Georgians. Fried turkey is basically a low fat meat transformed into a high-fat meat, and don't believe those stories about cooking in peanut oil making it healthy. Remember: I'm married to a Registered Dietitian, and she knows the chemistry of food.
