Thanksgiving Without Excess? Quite a Concept in this Here Country of Ours

As Thanksgiving approaches here is a pertinent article about our culture of overindulgence. Where do we go from here? As the world continues to struggle to even afford the crops that they grow we continue to shove excessive amounts of goods into the belly (the cultural belly that is, let alone the one built of flesh and bone). Get ready for the next diet craze! Here is a quote from the article link I am posting:

“In this world of economic uncertainty and diminishing resources, perhaps it would be more appropriate to glorify our inestimable national bounty with reverence rather than overindulgence. To cherish what we have rather than chowing down on it. To celebrate prudence rather than pigging out.”
