I’ve never been a fan of New Year’s resolutions. Here at crunchtime we espouse making slow steady moves toward more healthy eating. Drastic changes just because the last number of the date has changed are rarely changes that stay with us. This year however, I came across a great idea from a food critic in Bon Appetit-each January he gives up a favorite food to “reset” his palate for that food. I love the idea of starting the year with a simple resolution that I only have to keep for a month. So although I’ll still be slurping down those omega-3 laden oysters (January has an “R” after all!) I will be switching from wine to sparkling water for the next month to lighten my tastebuds and drop a few extra calories out of my diet.
