In his book, he advocates acknowledging how powerless we are and then taking steps to create a healthier eating environment...
...grill. Toast two slices of bread until golden brown and place a slice of cheese on one of them immediately so that it begins to melt. Then, put mayonnaise/mustard, lettuce, and tomatoes on the other slice of bread. Pick up your fried egg from your friendly dining hall chef and place it between your two slices of bread.
