Happiness (and Food) Is Where You Find It

Hey Barbara Kingsolver and all you other assorted 100-mile-dieters, taking it easy with your trips to the farmers’ market and your planting of gardens: British forager Fergus Drennan is officially one-upping you. He will spend the coming year eating only wild food, including mushrooms, berries, bark, herbs, and, although he is normally a vegetarian, roadkill.

According to an article in Britain’s Daily Mail, Drennan, who has been teaching himself about foraging since he was a child, will try to keep his food-gathering within a 10-mile-radius of his Kent home.

What an interesting idea - wish I'd thought of that.

I agree, very interesting. Wonder what I could find to eat within a 10 mile radius of my house.... I think it might be scary!

What do you think?
