[quote=Anonymous]First of all, if your goal is truly to encourage your husband to eat more healthfully, drop the attitude. You don't need to make this "Americans are so fat and awful!" Make some healthy American-style meals, like simply prepared fish, a vegetable side, and a small portion of a starchy side like mashed potatoes or rice. Try making spaghetti with turkey instead of ground beef in the meat sauce, and serve a small portion with a nice big salad. Then, incorporate some Indian dishes that you know he likes. On special occasions, go ahead and make some of the more indulgent American dishes that he grew up with. You will get nowhere if you insult his home country, especially when you chose to live here. Gee, did you think that when you chose to live in the United States and marry an American man, that he might like American food?[/quote]
