I published today an article on Blogcritics titled “Immigrant Foods Threaten America”. It was to be light and satirical but became too political and cynical. In the end I was not too pleased with it although it remains fun — just as pizza is usually fun. It is also included in Eric Olsen’s compendium, “Blogcritics on Immigration”.

A growing cataract has been making computer work, photography and even reading more tiring and difficult. This may be one of fewer articles on Blogcritics so I would have wished it better.

I also added a comment later from Newsweek today which presented a column by Dr. Dean Ornish on how America needs to export healthy foods. He goes on to write of a study that showed that most immigrants are healthier when they come to America that after they have lived here in spite of their lack of medical resources and affluence in the “old country”. It does not say much for the American diet.
