The War After the War: A Chef’s Salute to Veterans, Especially the Forgotten Ones

On Veterans Day, I find myself thinking about the soldiers who fought in wars they never chose—especially the Vietnam vets who came home to rejection instead of honor. As someone living with sarcoidosis and heart failure, I understand battles that never really end. This is a personal thank-you to those who fought for a country that didn’t always fight for them.

Full Disclosure: This blog is written by me—a real human with a chronic illness, a chef’s knife, and a heart full of stories. Sometimes I lean on AI for grammar touch-ups, structure tweaks, or a dash of SEO magic. I use AI to generate images related to the posts. But every word, every thought, and every bit of beautiful chaos? That’s all mine.
