One of my key phrases in life is this:
Also:
Does it make you think?
Well, good on ya!
Do you prefer to not think about it, aka pleasure eating, emotional eating, gluttony, binge eating.
Snap! You get the picture. 😇
Sometimes eating is about being social, making memories, celebrating, a get together just because. In todays world of luxury being common place, fast food is everywhere.
Marketing of food is so convincing. Cheeky feckers!
This is just one of the causes of the obesity epidemic. Then, for the pleasure of eating total yumminess, have a soda drink or a cocktail with that! Water? What? I can't hear you! Water is boring.
(I find water to be exciting! Countries can be seen economically according to their easy access to clean water. Safe to drink, too!)
Occasional fast food or even restaurant food is fine. Every day? At your own risk. The risk of damaging your own health, peeps. When you do this, there are, now, healthier options on most menus.
Can you remember the last time you ate whilst being truly hungry? The ghrelin gremlin was kicking up a Texas size fuss in your gut, so loud, other people could hear it?
Try to convince them that it was your tum-tum, not your bowels!
It was that loud.
More likely, you can't remember when this happened last or it never HAS happened to you, personally. Lucky duck!
Processed food is everywhere, easily accessed, easily purchased. Many people even concoct then consume chemicalized substance in their own homes. Even, sweet, innocent popcorn is sold in a paper package, loaded with chemicals, sodium, unpronounceable rubbish.
Since some people may not remember "old school" popcorn, this is for you!
If you buy "loose popcorn" as in, the old school bags for $1. - $2., just wait to be amazed. The fact that your loose kernel popcorn, even with butter, a bit of seasoning will cost a scant .33.
Microwave popcorn by the bag? $2. - $3.
As one who loves the aroma as well as the crunch of warm, buttered popcorn, loose popcorn could save $110. per year.
That is.
If you love the misshapen morsels as much as I do!
There is a movement called:
JERF ~ Just eat real food.
It seems to go along with the Keto or Atkins popularity. Many people are waking up from their chemicalized substance which passes for the real deal. People are coming out of the sugar fog that has laid heavy on the brains & bodies of people, world wide. Label reading is becoming more common, Farmers Markets are more common, now.
Some people will tear the skin off of their chicken, toss it out. Many will turn up their noses at skin-on salmon. Another practice is to crack an egg opened, toss the yolk, only eat the albumen or what is commonly referred to as "egg whites".
In our political climate, I would prefer the yellow to the white, do ya feel me? I just had to, 'tis the season.
In truth?
The yellow or yolk is the substance that would nourish, create new life, provide essential B-12, vitamins A, D, E and K. Also, Omega 3 fats. All of these will nourish a persons skin, brain even help with vision.
When the skin on chicken or salmon is removed, so is most of the most nourishing part of the fish or the bird. There is a lack of skin on chicken nuggets or popcorn chicken. Those contain 70% breading, not much chicken therefore, very little nutrient.
Please understand, I love me some chicky nuggets. Popcorn chicken? Why yes, yes please. Umm, nah. I gave those up, replaced them with real food. Slight inconvenience, huge health benefit.
Having studied these topics for a long time, I wanted to share. 💗
PS - In my next blog entry, I hope to share some natural, healthy, delicious recipes. Simple, inexpensive & fast to prep. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Ha ha. Stay tuned!
