A Week in Texas, In Food. 

 ​
Ah, yes: Texas. The big ole mind boggling massive expanse of mostly wide open country and few scattered cities, all with, ahem, a personality all to its own. You either love it or hate it -- or, most likely, love and hate it. But if there's one thing to always love, it's good food. And Texas has some great eats. So let's get down to it. 

For the record, at this point in time I enjoy a pescetarian and gluten-free diet, which for me features environmental, moral, and health benefits. So I didn't exactly go digging into some Texas barbecue or other meat-centric dishes associated with the region, and it turns out that Texas has much more to offer than just beef or pork.

Additionally, the scope of nutrition extends far beyond simply being a foodie, and so this story starts in our public school system (but ends with some pure foodie-ism, so hang tight!)
