“There is a great variety of fresh fruits and vegetables in season in the winter. Just because it’s cold out doesn’t mean you have to give up these foods! Even if it comes from a state or two away, it’s still better than importing fruits from another country, which can raise the cost of the food due to shipping, and it’s not what Mother Nature intended for us to eat in the winter. We need hearty foods that will keep us warm! There are clementine and mandarin oranges, grapefruit, pears, persimmons, lots of root vegetables such as turnips, sweet potatoes, and rutabagas. Leeks, kale, fennel, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, and radicchio!”

—-Kim Barnouin, co-author of Skinny Bitch, during an interview with The Phillyist.
