Whilst studying Food Science and Art History at University of Guelph, Helen enjoys drawing, eating, writing, and learning about food; however she has avoided cooking for quite a while ever since she managed to foul up a Pillsbury cookie dough recipe.
Though she thoroughly takes pleasure in learning about the cultures behind foods, she finds today’s food movements a trifle bit disappointing. Raw foodism, fruitarianism, and Paleolithic diets give her the sense that the public is shying away from scientific advances in food, attempting to find dietary refuge in an ideal past. Eventually, Helen hopes to aid the return of the public’s good faith in science as a tool to understanding and enjoying a good meal.
Mind Fuck Daily, like most other blogs, is a recording of the extraordinary and amusing things encountered in an ordinary life.
