Food industry and my thoughts...
I just wanted to say that with all these recalls on food items...please try to be very careful with what you buy. I heard a friend tell me today about how one company (no name) processes jam in jars and I was not too happy to hear what she had to say. I don't want to bash the food industry but I think we all need to be…

Lowering the fat in ground beef.
Found this info interesting, I couldn't verify the exact numbers here, but some other sites including one from the Journal of the American Dietetic Assoc came close.

Sugar??
I like sugar. I don't over-use it, but I hate Splenda and other sugar substitutes. I use Sugar in the Raw, and I use it sparingly (a little on my oatmeal, a little in my tea sometimes), but for some reason I feel like I'm being "bad" and that this sugar thing makes me unhealthy. Any thoughts?
