CFG bloggers Meet with Rebbeca Subbiah.

When invited to a CFG bloggers meet to be introduced to the world acclaimed dietitian Rebecca Subbiah,there was absolutely no hesitation on my part.She is regarded as a renowned registered dietitian with high acclaim, immensely popular,and with a large fan following. Now do not go by her diminutive appearance,Rebbeca is a power house of knowledge and information with regards to food.Having learnt to use the media as an advantage,she gave us insights into how she constantly keeps in touch with her followers on twitter.Social media was a topic discussed by her,on how she uses it to constantly stay in touch with her followers,and being a celebrity of sorts in the food department,believe me she has a huge fan following.

Organic culture may have just taken off in India,but western society has been a great advocate to this process.Rebecca too shares a passion for organic farming and food,and was delighted to know that it has been propagated in India as well.


The evenings chit chat progressed to Indian foods and culinary skills,we discussed extensively on the wide range of pulses available in India and how the average Indian male has evolved.An average male around 30-40 years ago would hesitate to cook or even try his hand in the kitchen,so much has changed now,we see an interest and love of food together with the quality of food being discussed.Apart from this Rebecca also discussed the importance of including a lot of fruits in our diets.Though India hosts a variety of fruits,a stable diet does not include as much as required.


The whole atmosphere was charged with energy as Rebecca fielded the volley of questions with a charming smile.We had a wonderful and informative evening,well spent with Rebecca Subbiah and fellow CFGians. Thank you CFG for giving us this opportunity to meet and learn so much from her,it wouldn't have been possible without you.


The meeting was held at Crimson Chakra,Gandhi Nagar, Adyar. They presented a" new soup in a bun" (sorry, forgot to ask for the name but yes soup in a bun sounds nice )a novel concept and too many superlatives to add here,will leave it for another post.
