Before fast: food for thought
2012
Overview
Bonnie Taub-Dix, a registered dietician and author of \"Read It Before You Eat It\" and co-author of \"Kosher By Design Lightens Up,\" said, \"We're supposed to feel the discomfort of our ancestors, of those that suffered back in the day - and also that there are plenty of people that go hungry today.\" That last supper. How you eat the day before can affect how easy the fast may be. \"People are afraid of not having food,\" Taub-Dix says. \"Many people really overdo the night before because they're not going to eat all the day the next day, and when evening comes they eat enough for three meals.\" \"My fondest memories as a kid of Yom Kippur and fasting, are the time my family sat together and played games and told stories - we just did things together,\" she said. \"That's something to be cherished. Food is a thread that holds us all together. During this holiday, sitting in temple, being with family, that's what you can take in as food.\"
