Ralph Nader and his family share recipes inspired by his parents commitment to the healthy diet of their homeland of Lebanon.More than just a collection of recipes, though, this is a window on a culture and a family. Naders description of his mother convincing 8yearold Ralph to eat radishes speaks volumes about this persuasive matriarch and the tireless activist she raised. Washington Post Book ClubRalph Nader is bestknown for his social critiques and his efforts to increase government and corporate accountability, but what some might not know about him is his lifelong commitment to healthy eating. Born in Connecticut to Lebanese parents, Naders appreciation of food began at an early age, when his parents, Rose and Nathra, owned an eatery, bakery, and delicatessen called the Highland Arms Restaurant. The family eschewed processed foods and ate only a moderate amount of lean red meat.Nowadays, the Mediterranean diet is considered one of the healthiest on the planet, but in the 1930s and 40s of Naders youth it was considered by many Americans as simply strange. Luckily for Nader and his siblings, this didnt prevent their mother, Rose, from serving the family homemade, healthy mealsdishes from her homeland of Lebanon. Rose didnt simply encourage her children to eat well, she took time to discuss and explain her approach to food; she used the family meals to connect all of her children to the traditions of their ancestors.The Ralph Nader and Family Cookbook shares the cuisine of Naders upbringing, presenting Lebanese dishes inspired by Roses recipes that will be both known to many, including hummus and baba ghanoush, as well as others that may be lesser known, such as kibbe, the extremely versatile national dish of Lebanon, and sheikh almahshithe king of stuffed foods. The cookbook includes an introduction by Nader and anecdotes throughout. The Ralph Nader and Family Cookbook will entice ones taste buds, while sharing a side of Ralph Nader that may not be commonly known, though will not surprise anyone familiar with his decades of activism and involvement in consumer protection advocacy.
