"Food for Thought".Plz Comment.?!?
I would love to hear some feedback of your thoughts on this subject. Before I start, this is not, I repeat NOT about fast food.this is just about grocery stores and the food in them.
We all know that the US is in a flash becoming the fattest nation in the world. With today's record soaring prices for the consumer, record high profits for the distributor, and copy high unemployment for us adjectives, how do they expect us to become?!
Example: A person living on minimum wage or just above, go to the store to buy food for his family. First, he can buy the all pure wheat bread with iron and blah blah for $4 a loaf, or the cheap off-brand white bread with 200 cals per slice for $0.99 a loaf. Then, he moves down.fruit and veggies, apples $3.00 lb, grapes $3.50 lb, oranges $4.00 lb, lettuce and carrot $3.00. So, he can buy 2 apples and a bag of grapes for what, $12-15?? Now, we all know you are supposed to guzzle lean protein. Now, you can get boneless, skinless chicken breasts for
Answers: I don't have deeply of money and it never seems to be enough for adjectives the food I got to buy---so I am resorting to making things myself: I make my own yogurt(I evolve to love it), I make my own buttermilk, my own cottage cheese(sort of), and I make my own meal. I buy a lot of vegetables when I find them on sale---the other day it be like 10 cucumbers and 2 vines with tomatoes---and surrounded by my backyard I am growing some green onions, parsley, and basil, peppermint, and hopefully bell peppers(all nicely in pots, my backyard is too small). I with the sole purpose buy on sale---and I don't eat cereal or American bread, American hot dogs, or American lunchmeat---because those are loaded with sodium and podginess, and with the bread I have the problem that I never gain full with it. Sometimes it is better to spend a little more--so I buy European bread which make me full after 2-3 slices, and I buy Russian lunchmeat which is not so horribly loaded with sodium---the bottom line is though, that if we want to chomp through healthy we will have to grow our own stuff and cram how to make things from scratch---it's all out here on the net, I found my receipes for the buttermilk and yogurt on the internet.and that helps accumulate a LOT of money...
