Ya...
(Monk chokes self - jokingly - pretending to struggle with the madness of food)
Banquet Turkey Pot pie - Hmmm - no tear tab, but it is only 99 cents. I don't know what's in it - but hey - I'm going to throw it into the Microwave (a first for me - not to do so under duress) and cross my fingers for 5 minutes (?)
Oh yeah, don't forget that little "X" marks the spot on the top...
Look - at this point in my life - I can't deal with what's inside the box/bag/crate - I don't know - I don't understand.
I do not have a Science Degree (heck I couldn't even pass Science class)
When I go into the grocery store - I don't want to buy anything - really - even when I'm hungry - I can't deal with it...
The only thing I really like are the fruits and veggies - but then all these "issues" with the food keep me from even coming to terms with this and that - the color isn't real - the bug spray - farm people died to give me this bag of potatoes - now there you go - add guilt into it...
I was almost set on buying those little spuds - eyes and all (it's bad enough Uncle Sam and Big Brother are watching us - now I have to watch out for my food - *sigh* - the horror of it all)
So someone tells me - pre-make all your stuff - breakfast and lunch and dinner and then you can just heat it up...
and the cycle begins again - finding the food I can deal with to do all that (I would rather be folding my clothes, vacuuming, ironing - not dealing with food)...
I know I can't be the only one that deals with this...and I assure you that I'm not skinny dude either - I'm not a picky eater - if you cook it - I'll eat it - and I'll trust you that no one died to provide it - or that I won't die from your cooking or the food involved...LOL
So - okay - having said all that...
When do we eat!

spam spam spam spam, lovely spam.......
well, not really. But I figger if you eat the spam, everything esle will taste like ambrosia.
Buy local if you can - go for farmer's markets - or alternatively a bulk buying program like the good food boxes we have here - get veggies ordered and paid for at the beginning of the month and they arrive like magic at the end of the month.
Eat lentils. The red ones vanish into the food you are eating and they kill no one.
Must send you a song by the Arrogant Worms: "carrot Juice is Murder" - it's lovely.

Makes sense to me.
Well, at one level, food is food. We need the nourishment. Still, my doctor tells me I need to be more careful than just grabbing the Banquet brand off the shelf. I'm taking her advice and trying to eat better food in a more balanced, healthy fashion.
