Have Your Cake and Eat it Too


Food Glorious Food. Nature has it backwards, nutritionists protest too much, me thinks. I often wonder what divine creator, what supreme being has allowed mankind to evolve so that mybloggers fatty saturated foods are unhealthy. Cookies and ice cream and cake and pancakes drenched in syrup and butter. Why does eating foods like this in copious amounts need to be unhealthy? Processed foods filled with sodium and cholesterol and preservatives and calories and fast foods that constitute most of my diet...what deity has allowed the human race to deem such products as being unhealthy?

Why do the foods we crave so much...at least I do..thick smoked bacon, cured meats and steaks and hot dogs filled with nitrites and nitrates and thick chocolate sundaes with gobs of chocolate syrup and whipped cream mixed in, and French Fries and pepperoni pizza....why oh why I ask are foods like this not good for you. I think something is rotten in the state of Denmark here and New York and our country and the world. As I initially said...Nature has it backwards.

Why aren't fruits and vegetables unhealthy? and salads with an assortment of bright fiber rich colored leaves. Why aren't natural and organic foods really really bad for you? Why is salmon considered heart healthy ? Fortunately that's one of the foods I actually do enjoy ..but kale and beets and Brussels sprouts...not on in my favorite things songbook. Broccoli is another of those rare vegetables that I can actually eat but I prefer it in a rich creamy butter saute.

Something is all messed up in our dietary laws. I don't know about you but I'm driving to my local White Castle restaurant for some double cheese burgers, onion rings ,and a chocolate milk shake. Let everyone else it crow.
