The Northern Michigan University Center for Native American Studies is now in the midst of the implementation phase of the Decolonizing Diet Project. The DDP research subjects have been adhering to their meal and excercise plans since March 25, 2012. While we have put forth great effort to prepare for this phase, we realize that there may be some things that still need tweaking. The master food list is located on the DDP Group Site. We will continue updating food provider information as we go along, and will announce opportunities to join food consultants on various outings as they become available.

We would like to say chi-miigwech (many thanks) to those who have supported our project thus far including Northern Michigan University, the US Forest Service, the Cedar Tree Institute, the Kewenaw Bay Indian Community, and several businesses (please see the list of supporters at the DDP Group Site). If you or your organization would like to donate to this project (whether in the form of food, equipment, or cash), or if you have any questions about the DDP, please contact Dr. Martin Reinhardt, principal investigator, at (906)-227-1397, or email: mreinhar@nmu.edu

We wish everyone the very best on this exciting adventure.

Pecan Butter

I just made some DDP crunchy pecan butter. I used about 10 ounces of pecans (available in bulk from Sam's warehouse with no additives), 1/3 cup of sunflower oil (available from Walmart), and about 1/4 teaspoon of salt. I used my ninja food processor to mix them. I will plan to keep it at room temperature. It tasted very good!
