After a week of eating homemade, veg, high-quality Indian food I find that I am not craving junk food back here in the States. I thought I would arrive at the San Francisco airport and immediately spend $15 on a burger and fries in an over-priced airport eatery. Instead, I went home. Invented a veggie burger mix, cooked up a few dozen for this week's lunches, and made lentils with peas as a side dish.
Last night I made a pancake and it tasted so alien - but yummy. This afternoon I'm at our school's bbq and have sunk my teeth into an over-cooked burger but have to admit it tasted good to have meat. However, the potato chips, a former indulgence, taste like grease. Yuck.
