Alton Brown's "Food of Four Lists"


I read an article yesterday about Alton Brown and his "Plan of Four Lists", and I thought it was really genius. He's awesome, so it was to be expected. 


Anyway, he eats certain foods daily (fruits, whole grains, leafy greens, nuts, carrots, green tea), certain foods 3x a week (Oily fish [wild salmon, sardines, etc], yogurt, broccoli, sweet potatoes, avocado), and certain foods 1x a week (pasta, one alcoholic drink, red meat, dessert). 


Then there are foods which he completely omits. Those "foods" are: fast food, soda, processed meals, canned soups, "diet" anything (no artificial sweeteners). This is a really smart guideline for those looking for help on what to eat and when.
