We meet people on fad diets. Can't eat tomatoes, don't fry in olive oil, avoiding wheat that's bad too. Well we're on an Italian diet because most of the 58 million population have got it right.

Tofu is wonderful but in the hands of someone who can't cook it's a disaster dish. Get a recipe, surround it with strong flavours and most of all respect 3,000 years of history.
