Craving Clean

I have heard that you can "train" your palette to like new foods. It makes sense to me, to a point. I'm sure I'll never like bananas, but I have come to love salmon and asparagus, in spite of prior loathing.

I just sat down for a dinner nosh and, after a weekend of not-so-great eating, I was dying for simple, clean flavors and healthy foods. I wonder if my palette has changed or if my brain has?

What did I want? Cucumbers. Carrots. A hunk of whole wheat baguette with some cheese. And grapes. Simple. Simply flavorful and snappy and chewy and crunchy and soft and sweet.

Perfect.
