Why can't diabetics get their sugar under control? Why can't dieters lose weight? Why are we riddled with caner, heart disease, and stroke? Cause the preprocessed and packaged food we buy is POISON!!! Damn; been drinking them diet drink mixes. A LOT of them; my weight loss levelled out though I closely watch my food intake. Paws been drinking them too and can't get his damn sugar under control. Gotta go back to WATER!!! Them damn mixes are full of aspertame. I'm so sick of the stores selling packaged food and drink for dieters and diabetics that REVERSES the healthy goals you set for yourself when purchasing the product. The food industry is working against us. Gotta get off our asses and get to the farmers market and buy fresh! Takes longer to fix, and storing it isn't as easy, but damnit it tastes better and won't KILL us!!!

All those "healthy" canned fruits and veggies - well by the time they are picked, transporpted, processed and canned, and the consumer cooks them again, nearly all vitamins and minerals are gone. What you have left is a can salt and sugar laden water/syrup with mushy bits of something resembling the original produce. And long term freezing and storing up of fresh stuff from the produce market isn't much better as the nutritional quality breaks down the longer it is in storage. Just gotta be sure what you buy as "local" really is local. Lots of local stands are now members of huge co-ops and must accept non-local produce. Many are selling it as local if it is something that can be grown in high tunnels in their locale.

Oh, I know that's right! Stopped at a Save-A-Lot food store a while back with a BIg giant sign that read "WE ONLY CARRY LOCALLY GROWN PRODUCE" Beneath it were bananas and Idaho potatos. I had Dave ask the manager if them bananas was imported or did he grow 'em in his back yard, lol.
Question evreything!!!
