I didn't know that.... I'll have to make sure and look for the turkey WITHOUT the skin. Thanks for that info!

The hardest thing for a child to get past is the "label" of being a problem child. As Charlene said, it's all down hill from there. I have the upmost respect for teachers and the jobs that they do.

It is more expensive to eat "better". In the long run it's worth it, think of what you'll save in health care costs down the road. It all evens out at the end of the day. :smile:

Thanks All :flowerforyou:
