YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

 

Many decades ago, advertisers used a sales pitch that made smoking cigarettes seem healthy, sporty and cool.

Then a few decades later when nicotine related deaths created lots of lawsuits, they ended up putting health warnings on cigarette packets.

We all know that junk food has a similar hazardous outcome, so they should put health warnings on junk food packaging too.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

 

Whether it be hunger or obesity, neither is a health choice.

Both extreme opposites are wrong options and need to be avoided.

Stating the obvious, I know, and yet both still exist.

LEAF COLOURING

 

I stopped drinking tea a few years ago.

Seeing the tannin stain my "stainless steel" teaspoons & ceramic cups, then knowing tannin was also used for dyeing leather, as well as making ink, didn't really make it seem very appetizing any more.

If tannin could do all that, what does it do to the inside of your body?

Not to mention the bleach used to whiten tea-bags.

Certain tea-bag brands would often sting the back of the throat during & after a cuppa.

So I didn't have any problem ending the use of tea.

Years later, I'm very pleased with that decision.

Clean kitchenware and no more stinging throat.

I also invented a new drink which I've indulged in for my after-tea years.

I call it Aqualait.

Aqua = water

Lait = milk.

Basically, a cup of tea without the tea added..!!

Hot water and milk is fairly flavourless but actually helps you taste the food better.

Could you imagine adverts for Aqualait?

Sounds quite upmarket.

Tea-bag sales might plummet..!!
