  1. My kids don’t normally like Sweet Potato Fries, but they LOVED these with the feta cheese and Greek seasoning. Great recipe!

  2. Thanks so much for chiming in here with your comments and experience Kellie! I’m working on writing a CEU on leaky gut syndrome, and there’s some research about LGS brought on by radiation and chemo, so what you say makes a lot of sense. I always appreciate you sharing your expertise-your patients are lucky to have your support!

  3. This is so chock full of great information and links. Thank you so much for getting this out there EA. LOVE that you said this, “My nutrition philosophy is more “50 Shade of Grey” than black and white.” Mine too! There is no ONE solution for everyone, and IBS and Gluten Sensitive alike are nuanced and complicated issues. I look to experts like you when I want to weed through hype. My hope is that enough people will read beyond the headlines.

    1. Thanks so much Katie-I really appreciate your comments, and, like you, I hope more people will read through those headlines too! Happy to be in such good “5o Shades of Grey” company too 🙂

  4. First off the recipe – this just reminds me that I still have to make those awesome polenta fries of yours! And now will be adding this to my “fries to make” list.
    This post is so timely – just did a Myths & Trends in Nutrition talk at Eat Write Retreat this weekend and I would have stolen your line of a “50 Shades of Grey” nutrition philosophy! Glad you wrote this post – both your nutrition background and personal issues with diet really help give perspective to this study.

    1. Thanks so much for chiming in Deanna and I wish I had been there to hear about your talk on Nutrition Myths and Trends! Sounds like you will be tasting a lot of fries this summer 🙂

  5. I couldn’t agree more EA. I don’t believe everyone needs to be GF. Nor do I believe everyone who is GF needs to be. But I also am amazed at how quickly so many RDs were to jump on the study as the “proof” that NCGS isn’t real.

    And as for the potatoes, YES. I’d love to make these!!

    1. Thanks Regan. Yes, sadly, MANY people were quick to jump on the study as being the definitive justification to say that NCGS isn’t real. I really appreciate you taking the time to spread the word, and {hopefully} enlighten some people 🙂

  6. Omg we love Greek fries but the only time we have them is when we splurge and buy the fried version. I am so making these at home with sweets!!

    1. These are so easy Liz, and although they aren’t as crispy as the fried version, you can not go wrong with the feat cheese on top! I notified my hubby kept going back for seconds, and thirds, and, dare I say, fourths 🙂 Let me know how you like them!
