The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease. Thomas A. Edison
I love this quote from Thomas Edison because it reinforces my awe and wonder of the natural world. It reminds me what an amazing creation the human body is with its ability to move with grace and flexibility, to grow strong with activity, and even to heal when injured or ill. So I ask myself, "Why wouldn't I choose the best possible food every time I sit down to a meal or grab a snack?"
In our mission statement, we make a big deal about Great Food and what that means to us. We love to cook, so it's always been natural to us to eat fresh, whole foods. Also, since we love the flavors, textures and natural beauty of food, eating locally whenever possible and getting our hands on the freshest available ingredients has been our habit since we opened Moveable Feast. Now we're raising the bar even higher with the introduction of our Superfoods initiative.
When you come into the shop, check the case items for dishes labeled Superfoods. We'll highlight dishes made with particularly good-for-you ingredients like quinoa (our featured superfood for February) or fresh farm eggs from pasture raised hens or local blackberry honey. There will be additional information available on each ingredient, its nutritional value and tips on how to cook with it. We hope you'll enjoy exploring these amazing foods with us!
