My kids and I have to eat gluten-free, so I have to make all my convenience foods from scratch. For example, if my kids want chicken nuggets, I first have to bake the bread so I can grind it down for breadcrumbs. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen by suburban housewife standards, but not anything near what anyone here does. I enjoy cooking but it's been really hard on my back and feet. I have tile floors and just regular sneakers.

I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation on either a good supportive brand of sneakers, or a relatively inexpensive professional resource.

Thanks,

Purchasing a couple of anti-fatigue mats are certainly in order especially where you do most of your standing/prep. I don't allow tennies in the kitchen, not only are most not slip resistant but there is just not the support you need for standing.
I don't encourage professional shoes at home because they seem to take to long to break in. I always make an annual trip to a good shoe store and inquire what the surgeons are wearing. In my neck of the woods they are still wearing a pro style Rockport which is what I wear in my home kitchen. See the site www.jamaicathings.com for best ingredients. I hope more persons will pop on for this is a GREAT question.

What's wrong wih sneakers?
There are water resistent ones, which could take hot water if spilled on your leg, and they aren't too expensive.
