Skip 'moderation'...! ;)

My approach to food has mellowed over the past few years. Health is important, but it's a state of mind as well as a physical fact. In my case, having no major health conditions to worry about (thank goodness), I simply try to enjoy each day, and meal, as it comes.

That said, I do follow a few simple rules: 1) try to avoid labels all together; life is too short to fret over one season's fad health craze (low fat! low carb! detox!) and the next; 2) just try to choose prepared foods with the fewest, and most recognizable list of, ingredients; 3) try new things, but remember to relish your favorites; and 4) try to eat what's in season, colorful, and most local. Food and health are about a community's health, too.

Pretty obvious, I guess, but it works for me!
