“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |

I have a great diet. You're allowed to eat anything you want, but you must eat it with naked fat people. |

TO MAKE CRUST: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Oil bottom and sides of
a 9" springform pan. Place Grape Nuts in a blender and process until
finely ground. Place crumbs in a small mixing bowl. Blend oil and
one tablespoon apple juice into crumbs to moisten. Moisten fingers
with water and pat crumb mixture into bottom of pan. Bake for 8
minutes, remove from oven and set aside to cool. TO MAKE FILLING:
Bring apple juice to a boil and whisk in agar. Reduce heat and
simmer until agar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and
set aside to cool for one minute. (If let sit too long, will
solidfy.) Combine agar mixture, cheese, yogurt and ginger in a food
processor and blend until very smooth. Pour into crust, sprinkle with
nutmeg and chill for 2 hours or overnight. Serve cheesecake garnished
with sliced strawberries.
