Cooking Light Cookbook 1989

Description for COOKING LIGHT COOKBOOK 1989 by Leisure Arts: This all-new volume includes the latest breakthroughs in nutrition, including highlights from the all-important Surgeon General's report. The report underscores the need for Americans to understand the importance of eating more vegetables, fruits, and whole grain products.

The path may appear to be clear---avoid fried foods, use less fat and oil, and trim the extra fat off meat. However, there's more to the story.
