Got an awesome letter from UW's food services, explaining which guidelines they use to calculate the sodium content in their meals. References and all!
We just disagree a little about the guidelines that should be used. But that they did some research and returned my letter is amazing. One so rarely expects that kind of service in bureaucratic institutions.
The long and short of it is that they are working from the old standard guideline based on an upper average of 2390mg per day, instead of the more current 1500mg per day. The Government of Canada has set new standards, and says it's working with food producers on a voluntary compliance basis to bring sodium levels down across the board by 2016.
Well.... good luck with that voluntary compliance thingy.
If I was in charge of the world, I'd make compliance mandatory. Better yet, I'd wave my magic wand and....
Anyhoo.... walked around Ring Road at work again today. The short version this time, cutting off one corner of it.The total was 2.4 km.

Tonight's walk with Thoka was just 1.7 km. He was psychotic, and we were both tired and wanting to get back to a new line-up of tv shows.
Castle returns from it's summer hiatus tonight! House was.... amusing.
