Everyone's taste buds are different. I like broccoli raw, in salads, but most of the grandkids won't even touch it. Just because I say something is good doesn't mean that you will like it, and vice versa. And a lot of the stuff you will see in various guide books might be a treat for Bear Grylls, and then only when the camera is rolling.

So, nothing beats experience. Get out and try these things. You'll be gaining experience, you'll have something to talk about at cocktail parties and, if you substitute just one free vegetable or fruit a week, or substitute a couple free teas for worthless sodas, you will save a few dollars to spend on preparations.

How's that for a deal?
