Eat Local Challenge: Day 8

June 8, 2012

I survived Week 1 without making too many concessions!  Let's see how Week 2 goes...

Breakfast:
Donuts and bagels.  I went to the New Orleans Urban Congress "Right to the City" Day of Action and succumbed to the temptation of breakfast offerings.

Lunch:
They also served lunch of salad, white beans and shrimp, red beans and rice, and jamabalaya.  Although they're local dishes, I doubt the ingredients were all local.

Dinner:
It was a long day at work and I didn't get home until 8:30 pm.  I ate a local plum and made chapati using the wheat flour from Carencro, LA that was for sale at the ELC kick-off party.  Topped it off ginger and pear butter from White Wood Farms in Mandeville, LA.



Non-local Foods for the Week: donuts, bagels
Off the Wagon Meals Remaining: 1
