Barbecue for Summer

From FMC catering - a trivia for you:


Summer is right around the corner. You may be getting ready to take a family vacation. All of us spend more time outside in the summer. There are picnics to attend, maybe an outdoor concert or a baseball game. Biking and hiking activities increase in the summer as well because the weather is just so nice outside.

Another thing that increases in the summer time is barbecuing. National statistics suggest that if you live in the United States you will probably barbecue at least one time. Over 90% of all Americans barbecue which is a very high number. Here's why we love to barbecue so much.

First of all the smell of food cooked on a grill is unlike any other. This smell gives barbecued food a different taste as well. Cooking in the oven or in a pan is not going to give you that great smell and taste that something cooked on the grill will.

Another great thing about barbecuing is how easy it is. It is easy to start a gas grill. If you are using briquettes you have to allow a little longer for them to heat up, but this is not hard to do.

Cooking on a grill is a matter of getting the heat the temperature you want. Then you lay the meat, or whatever you are cooking, on the rack and let her go. By flipping and not stabbing the food you retain the juices that gives the food even more flavor.

When you cook on a grill the food cooks evenly and quickly. Usually you only have to turn it one time and how long it takes is determined by such things as the size and type of food you are cooking.

Clean up is a breeze as well. You can turn the heat up and bake off any grease. Using a wire brush to scrape off any food stuck on the grill allows you to easily clean up in a few seconds.

Barbecues are great for family and friends and gets everyone together for some outside fun like volleyball, horseshoes, or croquet. It is easy for everyone to bring a salad or desert to share and room is never a problem when you do it on your patio or in your backyard.

We both know you will barbecue this summer and why not. A good time will be had by all and you will enjoy great food, friend, and have a lot of fun.

Emotional Eating

Updates from FMC catering


Food is a source of nourishment and energy. Without food we would not be able to perform our daily activities. Our muscles would wither, our nervous system would fail. We all need food.

However, food also has another role in our lives - a role of comfort and entertainment. Culturally and instinctively we prepare and serve foods to comfort those who have experienced loss, to celebrate joy or to show friendship and love.

WHAT IS EMOTIONAL EATING?

Seeing food as more than just a source of energy and enjoying it simply for the satisfaction it gives is not wrong. In fact science shows that food can promote good feelings by chemical reactions caused in our brains. What IS a problem is when an individual cannot experience pain, anxiety, joy or even boredom without turning to food as means of dealing with those feelings, or they are obsessed with food, weight and dieting.

Emotional eaters turn to food as a source of distraction from dealing with feelings. However, eating these foods leads to feelings of guilt which can only be soothed with more eating, restrictive dieting, excessive exercise or purging.

Emotional eaters tend to value themselves based on their weight and how closely they've stuck to their 'ideal' diet. Because of this distorted relationship with food, foods are labeled "GOOD" and "BAD". Emotional eating can lead to serious eating disorders and depression.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I'M AN EMOTIONAL EATER?

Do you turn to food for reasons other than hunger? Are you obsessed with thoughts of food - whether you plan to eat it or are concentrating on restricting yourself from eating it?

Do you regularly try diets and fail - leading to guilt and further over eating? Do you think about or attempt to purge excess food by throwing up or using laxatives? Do you exercise compulsively when you think you've eaten too much?


HOW DO I OVERCOME EMOTIONAL EATING?

Since emotional eating is caused by looking to food as a coping strategy for emotional distress dieting can actually create more problems. When the emotional eater fails to stick to a diet they suffer feelings of guilt that can only be soothed with more food and in turn, more guilt or punishment.

Instead of trying to focus on what they are eating, the emotional eater needs to learn new skills for coping with stressful emotions. Often this requires the help of a Personal Coach or Psychotherapist who deals with emotional eating. It is only by finding replacements for the comfort food provided that the individual can put food into its rightful place and learn healthy eating habits that last a lifetime.
