We have soliloquies blogged to the sensitive palate, televised lives of hot chefs foraging for earthy rhizomes, pages of exquisite, Pinterest food porn, and paeans to heritage varieties of tomatos, corn and pigs, to name a few. "You, too, can raise chickens!" "Eat Local!" "Ban GMOs." "Choose sustainable seafood or the penguin gets it!" It's exhausting! And the guilt can be a drag on your roll. With families, though, it's got to be simple. You're contending with three or four generations of tastes, table manners and tolerance for boredom. So let us praise the ever-reliable, abundantly versatile, if sometimes a bit noisy, Golden Corral. "Eat, pilgrim" it says to us, simply. "Eat again and again."
