Orthorexic I’m not!
I’m glad I found this on The Guardian: Orthorexia nervosa = fixation on righteous eating.
According to the the article, orthorexics commonly have rigid rules around eating, refusing to touch sugar, salt, caffeine, alcohol, wheat, gluten, yeast, soya, corn and dairy foods, and on and on… Of course any foods that have come into contact with pesticides, herbicides or contain artificial additives are out… This obsession about which foods are “good” and which are “bad” means orthorexics can end up malnourished.
Well, I love my coffee, my bacon, my alcohol, my butter… There are those who always let me know what they think about my eating, but you only live once and I like to live mine with lots of finger-lickin’, lip-smackin’, delicious food. Call it my little plates of heaven. 🙂
