In this episode of the RWS Clinician’s Corner, Margaret Floyd Barry is joined by her husband, Chef James Barry, who shares invaluable insights on changing mindsets about food, particularly the less commonly consumed yet highly nutritious organ meats. We explore how exposing children to diverse foods can expand their palates and discuss practical methods to integrate organ meats into everyday meals subtly and effectively.

 

We discuss: 

• The history of organ meats in the American diet 

• Strategies for easing into organ meat consumption, including how to adapt recipes to include organ meats for various palates

• The importance of connecting taste to the nervous system 

• The psychology of taste and picky eaters

• Recipe resources and cookbooks for preparing organ meats

• Changing mindsets and normalizing organ meat consumption

• Insights into considerations for individuals with higher uric acid levels
