Leave it to good ole Mickey D’s to find some obscure fish for their Filet-O-Fish sandwich. Actually - IS IT really just ONE FISH they’re using? Probably not.
Two of my favorite books on food: Eric Schlosser’s “FAST FOOD NATION” and Morton Spurlock’s “SUPERSIZE ME” tell of the hidden dangers of illness, chemical saturation and obesity which lurk in our food. It’s well documented; health risks from additives, high salt and fat. For most people, however, it’s cheaper for them to eat at McDonald’s than to buy real, heathful food! This is the sad part of our culture because we’ve been brainwashed to THINK that fast food purveyors serve us food that is actually good for us!
It isn’t.
Learn what in your food. Read about pesticides, chemicals; read labels while you’re in the store. Don’t be fooled by ‘natural ingredients’ because it is not always so.
Learn about your food. Watch the movie: “FRESH” Get a copy of “FOOD, INC” when it comes out and learn what IS behind your food.
