Further food forays

Well went to FOE and had a small lunch. I actually wanted the large option but was given the small one. There you go. It was biodynamic and organic and very nice altho I could not identify everything in it. Fried eggplant. Cabbage. Spud. Did not have the cous cous option as that is wheat. Very nice. Could eat there every day and feeling virtuous is a plus. The woman whose name I had forgotten was BETH who had one of her pretty daughters on the till. Beth is the mainstay of the lower deck of FOE.
On the way back I ducked into Habib's Whole Foods near Flora Indian and caught a horrifying news item about Animal Lib people rescuing chickens who were in Belsen conditions in a non free range egg farm. I am so glad I gave up eggs. I get biodynamic ones occasionally and they must have a good life as biodynamic farming is a very devoted way of living. There are a lot of free range eggs around cheaply and you just cannot trust the source. Eating animals who have been illtreated is not on and eating animals is not too crash hot but I am not perfect. Have completely gone off chicken but I suspect that is cos it may have been fed GM soy rather than any virtue on my part........... Then tonight I had Masala Dosa as introduced to me by Deb Hay once, from Flora in Flinders St. Very nice rice pancake the size of a folded window stuffed with potato and served with a spicy tomato dipping soup and a coconut and bean? dip. $7 and very nice.
