Any tortoise will tell you: Slow and steady wins the race.
When a new food fad comes racing down the pike, its floppy ears folded back and its cute little nose twitching, I usually step aside to let it zoom past me. I know that if I keep a steady pace, I’ll catch up to it in time.
Only then, as I chew thoughtfully on a piece of lettuce, will I determine whether the fad is worth my participation — even if the fad is over and the hares have gone on to the next hot chocolate bomb or baked feta pasta.
