why not substitute celeriac for those high glycemic – unhealthy in quantities – potatoes

I do not support the lipid hypothesis.

My parents love it (and they are major potato people). I make a more Atkinsy-version of this soup.

I've never understood why someone would cut out meat but not dairy. Dairy is not healthier than meat or fish, and its consumption is not more humane. The dairy and meat industries are conjoined twins. Half of the calves born to dairy cows are destined for feedlots while their sisters will have the life milked out of them for two years before they, too, make that final journey up the ramp, where a man armed with a stun gun awaits.
