Welcome to yet another Fight Back Friday! Today we’re bringing together a collection of recipes, tips, anecdotes, and testimonies from members of the Real Food Revolution.
Who are they? Why, they’re the Food Renegades. You know who you are — lovers of SOLE (Sustainable, Organic, Local, and Ethical) food, traditional food, primal food, REAL food, the list goes on. I believe that by joining together, our influence can grow, and we can change the way America (and the industrialized world) eats!
So, let’s have some fun.
If you want to participate but aren’t sure how, please read these guidelines for how Fight Back Fridays will work.
Please be courteous and use your BEST blog carnival manners! In the very least, that means remember the two most important things you can do:
- Share a relevant post from your blog with us using the Mr. Linky Widget below (don’t just link to your blog’s home page).
- In your post, be sure to link back to this post (not the Food Renegade home page) so that your readers can have access to all the information and encouragement we’ll be sharing.
Please also feel free to make use of any of the banners below by saving the image to your desktop then uploading it to your own server. (You don’t have to use them, but they’re there for you!)
If you don’t have a blog but are interested in joining the conversation, you can leave your comments below!
I can’t wait to see what you all share!
Fight Back Friday Banners
PLEASE NOTE: The smaller banners are also available as badges/buttons for your sites over on my sidebar so that you can sport your Real Food Lovin’ Pride and inspire others to join us in the Real Food Revolution.

I’m starting a blog about our FOOD revolution. As I write my senior thesis on the history of Slow Food, I explore the importance of healthy, sustainable, and pleasurable food. Want to join the food revolution? Check out TASTE THE CHANGE. And perhaps eat something yummy while you read as well.

This week I am sharing what I hope are a few compelling reasons not to go too crazy with candy this Halloween, as I share some little-known harmful effects of sugar. I also share some tips for how to healthfully indulge in the festivities.

Hello!
I’m new leaving a post here, although I’ve been avidly reading your website for a long time. This week, I’m sharing my frustrations at the Nutella advert that has re-appeared on British screens, despite having been banned a year before.

Amy @ Simply Sugar & Gluten-Free says
It’s fall and we actually have locally grown squash in Texas. The difference in flavor and texture is incredible. Even my husband, who didn’t like squash when I met him, was eating this right out of the oven with nothing on it. I almost fell over in shock! I rarely eat pasta – in this dish the squash acts as pasta and it’s topped with a lovely tomato saffron sauce.
Thanks so much for hosting.
Cellulite Analyst says
The China Study is at the heart of the vegan movement, but it includes a lot of valuable information for the Real Food movement, as well. It’s worth a read if you have the time. But if you don’t, here’s my take on 7 reasons even the most devout Real Food advocate should love The China Study by T. Colin Campbell. Thanks!

First time participant – I am using local squash and local apples in a soup that was a big hit with my family. I try to cook all natural with local and organic ingredients. But mostly I just love good food!
Happy Halloween!

This week’s post is an article I found about how the Gates foundation is supporting GMO’s. They should be using all that money to support organic and sustainable agriculture.

Raine Saunders says
My contribution today is a piece of commentary I left on the PETA web site (that was deleted, by the way) and the response I received from the the Correspondent Assistant, Karen Dickerson. I’d like to publicly thank Ms. Dickerson for her response; it was definitely a great inspiration for an important article.
Thanks for Fight Back Fridays, Kristen! 🙂

The Stir-Fry Sauce recipe I’m sharing today is gluten-free and can be made sugar-free, too, if you’d like. It’s really delicious and super versatile… plus it takes, like, 30 seconds to make. Hope you like it!

Ohioan’s vote Tuesday on a measure that proports to be about animal care, yet who is behind it speaks volumes about the real agenda.
I have two posts about it today, one submitted to the carnival and the one in the comment love below. Check em out and send to any friend in Ohio!

Wow, that looks wonderful! Love the spider web, but even with your instructions I’m doubtful I could achieve the results you did. Mr. GFE wouldn’t go for this soup, but my support group would.
Thanks, Gudrun,

glad to hear you have this book! What else have you tried? I made a bean salad last spring, but have not done much else with it. Would love to hear your suggestions!

in this recipe, and lots of others that need to be pureed, using the immersion blender really makes a difference!
My daughter helped me with the spider web, she was very intrigued with how easy it was to drizzle the yogurt and create the design…
