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…

Knorr Colour Soups?
Has any one tried these. They are 90 Cals and only 2.5 g of fat per serving. They look good, but I thought I would see what everyones thought about them. Especially if you were one who never particularily liked veggies or fruit. I have a picky eater in my house.

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.

Sodium intake
I just changed my food diary to show sodium and calcium consumption. I noticed that on most days I am way under in both categories. Is this bad? I know you don't want to have too MUCH sodium but is it also not a good thing to not have enough sodium? What is sodium's function any way? Memaw

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?

Potassium...curse you!
How on god's green earth does one consume 3,400 mg's of potassium every day? Let's see--I had a banana at breakfast, a tangerine as a snack, 5 cups of spinach over the course of the day, along with carrots and cucumbers and other saladish veggies...and I'm nowhere near 3,400! What must I do? It seems like potassium is…

Acai Berry and Colon Cleanses?
Whenever I log in an advert for Acai Berry and Colon cleanse is always there. Blogs from women who have lost weight tell of how wonderful this is but I am not so sure. Does anyone have experience with any of it? When you read what they are supposed to do, it sounds great, but does it really work?
