Rather than do the Fife diet, or even the UK diet, I have decided to start by looking at what I actually eat. So for a week I will be writing down what I eat and where it comes from, in as far as it's possible to tell. the fact that it's *not* always possible to tell, and that the amount of detail you get depends on what you pay, is the topic of another post, possibly at the end of the week. So here goes:

So far today I have had:

Fairtrade coffee from multiple countries with Scottish Milk
An apple of unkown origin 'cos I got it free from a fruit basket at work
Wholemeal bread made by me out of Allinson's flour which they say is 'sourced mainly from the UK", packet yeast and a dash of italian olive oil
Carrot dal soup made of Fife carrots, Cambridgeshire onion, lentils from 'more than one country' and Italian tinned tomatoes, plus a variety of dried spices from Very Far Away. Oh, and i think there's some Scottish yoghurt in there somewhere

For tea I have Norwegian farmed salmon (which was so reduced and about-to-be-thrown-out if no-one bought it I couldn't resist), Lothian spuds, non-specifically UK red cabbage and more Fife carrots.
