Interesting that your pronunciation is listed as predominantly US, but Larson lives and lived in Washington state and pronounces it the way I and presumably the rest of the Commonwealth do
Neither of us can say the other is mispronouncing the word, it is said both ways
How did we get that way of saying it? The French version of the word has a circumflex over the e (crêpe) I'm not up on French pronunciation but I suppose that influenced how it was pronounced in English
Edit to add: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cr%C3%AApe#French
The French pronunciation
In English crepes rhymes with shapes. Sorry, we do mangle words we ~~steal~~ adopt
Most Christian churches would probably consider it so, but I doubt any would do anything about it beyond writing an open letter
Are you commenting on their characterisation of the CCP or the Catholic church?
I think the stuff linked in the article is about it
Archaeology has found sea and freshwater shellfish shells mounded very high (shell middens) so we know shellfish was a big part of people's diets where those were available
The people who lived where Canberra is now (inland, in a series of picturesque valleys) ate kangaroo, wombat, koala, emu, emu eggs, echidna, various grubs (notably the witchetty grub), assorted lizards and snakes
We are pretty sure they made bread out of local seeds in the week or two those were available, and had a few root vegetables (smaller than a baby carrot) year around
Of course the anti meat people point at the bread, some insects eaten up north, and about five plant foods that are mostly tropical
Meanwhile a group working in indigenous health up north have had luck getting people off the sickening Australian processed food diet by getting the elders to tell them about old food culture, then promoting it
Their (tropical North Australian Aborigines') rules are
- Food is holy, respect it
- Eat the meat first until you don't want more
- Eat the (traditional very low carb vegetables) when you need to be faster
Which really shoots down the "indigenous were in balance with the plants and animals and didn't ever hurt animals" people (sure mate, tell that to diprotodon)
There are a few places where the people have connection with their traditions still, where Europeans didn't murder them or "civilize" them. So we have some interviews with older people, and up north there's places where the culture has been continuous, they continue to teach their children with their rock art
Ed to add: like everywhere else: meat first, plants when they were in season, there was no plant anything like modern plant foods
I first saw it in an Australian news report on our national broadcaster's website, from a nutrition researcher explaining why there was no research
Now though they (nutrition researchers) are weakening their words. From "you'll die of scurvy and constipation" to "It helps a lot of people in the short term but we expect it to be dangerous in the long term" from cancer/overworked liver/whatever bullshit the FFQs are used to promote
Meanwhile Australian media in general - my search terms turned up the ABC (the Australian national broadcaster) and the Sydney Morning Herald - a commercial newspaper - talking about 1. The diet being popular and unstudied, and 2. The diet being incredibly popular among athletes (although many are sponsored by companies like Sanitarian and don't feel they can talk about food)
Overall pretty good reporting. An Australian Institute of Sport spokesperson compared it to veganism, but said "It's easy to meet dietary needs, where vegans have to work very hard to ensure they have enough energy and nutrition to compete"
The data for this RCT was collected between 1966 and 1973 and stored on magnetic tape. As it was at the height of promotion of vegetable sourced fats over animal sourced fats and the data showed clearly that substituting vegetable oil (safflower oil) and margarine (safflower based, free of trans fats) caused an increase in risk of death, risk of cardiovascular event, risk of coronary event.
I wonder how this would have changed things if it was published in 1974.
It's nuts that there have now been two cases just like this. This one and the Sydney diet heart study both came out opposite to what the researchers hoped and they shelved them
So two have been found, out of we have no idea how many.
Any controversial research - diet and medication included - should have to be registered before they start and publishing (and including whatever data they collected, not just the stuff that informed what they published) should be mandatory
I find it amusing that the researcher is boggled by the evidence that indigenous Australians went for high fat foods over low fat, and preferred saturated fats (for example emu eggs) rather than unsaturated fats (for example emus)
Note that many links in the article are to the research papers the article is referencing
I have that game. The mission from the book was rather hard for teenage me, though I had read the book and knew what to do
The kid fed them. Now they're screwed
