Dear eDiets:
I have been on your “Mediterranean diet” food program for about a week now, and I have to say you’ve done a really good job putting this plan together. I may be able to actually stick with this; there are no freeze-dried hamburger patties to activate with water, no olive oil to drink between meals, no sweetened iodine wafers, and no recipes suggesting that I poach canned pear halves in diet cream soda. So thanks.
I also commend you on your decision to leave spumoni ice cream out of the plan, because while it is a technically mediterranean food, the only spumoni you can get in the US is awful. I do feel that you may want to expand your recipe selection, however, as many of my favorite mediterranean dishes are not currently on the program. Please consider adding the following:
- lamb souvlaki
- gyros
- salami
- turkish delight
- saganaki
- falafel
- camel hump (I know this is mostly just fat, but it is delicious and it’s entirely possible that there may be health benefits to eating camel hump.)
Thanks in advance for implementing these changes. Together, we can make a healthier me!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Herndon
P.S. What’s with all the kiwifruit? I am pretty sure it’s not Mediterranean in origin. Go ahead; show a kiwifruit to a person of the Mediterranean and see if he/she doesn’t identify it as a gorilla testicle.
