Reasoning

OK. Let's use a little reasoning to review something. Basically I'm talking nutrition.

We all know about the food pyramid. We should have so much grain, dairy, meat, veggies....yada yada yada. I took nutrition in college to avoid biology so I'm kinda comfortable with all that.

Now, let's look a little closer.

Milk = Dairy
Flour = Grain
Beans = Protein = Meat or Veggie
Butter = Dairy
Eggs = Protein
Corn = Veggie
Cheese = Dairy

Lookin' at that list, I'm thinking that covers about everything you need to have.

So I guess it's alright that my meals from yesterday consisted of yellow cake w/chocolate buttercream frosting, tri-flavored popcorn, and a fried egg sandwich with cheese - cool.

And here I was thinkin' I'd not stuck to my diet. Hell. This stuff is easy

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Sounds perfectly poisonous for 1% of the country (and that's just the flour alone! Doesn't include egg, milk, casein allergies and intolerances!).

Sorry, I get a little bent out of shape at the food pyramid. They always taught us it was a standard for everyone, and look where we are with food allergies these many years later. It's going to differ for each person.

But good on ya eating whatever you felt like eating.

Since sugar comes from plants, I consider it a vegetable :-)
