And I contend the author of the blog piece is going out on a limb to show that plants were a source of nutrition for the Inuit. Yet even there, she fails. She fails because she argues that desert is a form of food. It's not. She fails because she argues we need lots of vitamin C. We don't. While ZC might be my sacred cow, carbs is much more sacred for a whole lot more people, and it's got nothing to do with its nutritional content. I could have compared it to the cannabis trade, or the opium trade, or the tobacco trade, or or. You see my point. We go to great lengths for things that bring us pleasure.
