Very few people get a chance to quantify how much their father loves them. But I did. The job should have taken forty-five minutes, but Dad spent three and a half hours on it. My father loves me 366 percent more than he loves anything else.
“Based on the science, I love any meal that starts with a salad. Unfortunately, many dining experiences don’t set us up for success: restaurants serve bread while you’re waiting for food. Starting with starch is the absolute opposite of what you ought to do. It will lead to a glucose spike that you won’t be able to tame, then a crash later on—which will intensify your cravings. Now that I think of it, if I had to devise a way to get people to eat more at my restaurant, giving them the bread first is exactly what I would do.”
