You healthy romanians ;) -- eating habits

Most famous actresses certainly dont eat healthily as they just dont eat anything. I watched a TV prog the other day and a lot of the famous hollywood women had a BMI which was just not healthy. Some bordering on anorexia.

"Famous actors" are payed to look the way they look and it's not all about the food, of course ; not to mention they are snobbish enough to eat all that even if they don't have to. :flowers:

This is the real world... :flowers:

I agree. If they are not slim anf fit, they just don't get roles anymore. But the snobism is not related to our subject, healthy food.

I can asure you from my personal experience, that healthy food is very, very good indeed if you know how to cook it. I've been a vegetarian for 13 years and the food I eat is very tasty. :flowers:

But...I agree that if you really like the taste of a...let's say...piece of meat (in blood) fried in plenty of fat...this thing will never taste like a great and tasty salad. This is for sure.

But that is surely down to opinion. Some people prefer meat some people dont :flowers: What is tasty is only opinion.

You can eat meat-free and still unhealthy. Just like you can eat healthily while still having meat on your plate. No one says you have to roast and fry and dip three pigs in gallons of fat :flowers: Therefore, I don't think healthy eating = vegetarianism or vice versa.

As far as I'm concerned, becoming a vegetarian should be a personal choice based on religious and/or ethical considerations. I know people who acted upon such and I respect both their choice and the fact that they acted on what I consider to be superior moral/ethical beliefs. While I might share some of their beliefs, I do not however, at this point, go as far as to cut any meat from my menu. And if I did, that would be a poor shot at eating healthily, since, as I've said, there's more to it than renouncing meat. Which I don't like soaked in blood :flowers:

Sure.

Is it easy to eat healthily in Romania, do shops give a good choice of good food? And is it cheap/expensive?

indecently cheap I would say...

Was reading about romanian food... (cos there was nothing else to do! )

A traditional romanian meal could consist of:

Ciorba de perisoare (Meatball soup) or ciorba taraneasca (veggie soup).

Tocanita or tochitura - I like the sound of this one! Ghiveci or sarmale (which I know I wouldn't like)

Papanasi or clatite cu branza which both sound nice too

Ghiveci = Vegetable stew

Sarmale = Cabbage Rolls !!! and I make them so good !!!

The vegetable stew sounds delicious, but I have never like cabbage so the Sarmale I dont think I would like. I'd be willing to try though
