Several years ago I was watching a TV show where they were interviewing an author by the name of Gloria Pitzer who had written 8 cook books.
She would purchase many different foods in super markets and restaurants such as Oreo cookies and Kentucky Fried Chicken and duplicate them.
The hostess tried these rich foods and complimented Gloria and asked her how she stayed so trim. Her answer was, "I just take a small taste of what I prepare".
MY EXPERIENCE WITH CATERING FATTENING FOOD
At the same time I was teaching my Diet Masters classes and Low Calorie Gourmet Cooking, I spent 15 years preparing very fattening foods....a dieters' nightmare.
All of my parties started with rich fried hors d'oeuvres. Almost everything was deep fat fried, and I would purchase 6 gallons of oil at a time. I worked with 2 electric woks at once. Some specialties were fried wontons; marinated chicken breasts, cubed and dipped into a mixture of flour and almonds and fried; tender steak prepared in a similar manner with sesame seeds; egg foo yung fritters, and about 8 other choices (not all deep fat fried). I also hired fantastic bakers.
I DID EXACTLY WHAT GLORIA HAD BEEN DOING. I just took a "very tiny taste" and was never tempted to overeat.
