Karen Kafer's warning that a chef's advice on eating for specific health conditions crosses into professional dietitian territory is ridiculous ["Flawed nutrition advice for the poor," letters, Oct. 20]. Every caring mother and my nutritionist could be jailed for dispensing medical advice.
Recently I visited a below-poverty-level household with five children. The mother didn't know that the messy tree outside was dropping healthy walnuts. We enjoy the pears, figs, herbs and nuts from my suburban yard.
Good eating has to start with an appreciation of better taste and variety, a chef's realm; fresh isn't always more expensive.
