I agree.. and whole grains and bread are marketed as being 'healthy'. And blindly a good percent of our society follows.. and instead of eating it in moderation.. they consume it on a mass scale.

Very true....

No, I agree with you. I am just saying that the ills of the poorest aren't fixed with processed grains alone. I think in the end we are both saying that the problems are more complicated then food being the save all.

Ive said my piece and I think we have all gotten a little off topic... I'm done. haha

Of course this is just my opinion and take it as that..Yes they are getting fed.. but I just don't think it is as "all saving" as people think..People in these countries are still starving, and partially due to the fact that their population's are growing. The agricultural revolution brought population increase... the more…

I just don't think this cheap, processed,food is helping as much as we would like... the people that this processed food is feeding are not at all healthy. They are overweight, diabetic and plagued with all sorts of problems.. Yes people are fed.. but at what cost? We have seen a population explosion recently because the…

Good Idea... I'll have to try that.. I struggle with breakfast during the week.. I am up and out early and would like something that would be easy!

We fed the poor this cheap food but now the lowest income bracket are still the least healthy. They have the highest instance of obesity and diabetes that shorten their lives...yes they are fed, but at what cost? Some people might think the trade off is worth it.. but in no problem has been fixed.. (at least in my eyes)..…

Yup! I have given up those things as well (for the most part, I do have my weak moments). It is amazing how much better I feel and less 'addicted' to food. (meaning the extreme hunger that needed to be immediately addressed). Do you have any good recipes?

I agree completely, humans weren't originally were not designed to eat corn either, early in human history we didn't eat it either ... Our society eats so much corn its unbelievable. Look at the labels and do some research.. food makers have changed the name of corn products. It is in most processed foods...

I am all about personal responsibility and its everyone's choice to what they eat. I am not disagreeing with you there. But one has to recognize that WHAT you put into your body DOES effect you, not just how much of it (calories). I am just saying that it is not as simple as calorie in/out, that there is more going on in…

I also dislike the notion that we are all dumb sheep. But I think that most people THINK they are eating healthy by gravitating to the whole grain processed food. They are marketed as being healthy and people buy into that and they don't look at the label to see how processed they are. I also go into things with 2 eyes…

But I know many people can't eat 1200 calories of cheesy poofs and twinkies and call it a day. I know if tried that I would be starving and miserable. Personally, I don't buy the whole calorie is a calorie idea. I think a calorie theory is a decent measure of the QUANTITY of what you are eating but not the QUALITY of the…

I agree that people should educate themselves and MOST DEFINITELY take responsibility for what they eat. (I think this is the biggest problem with many people today) I do disagree that all food is 'food'. In other words, what we call "food'' these days can be described as junk. Take a look at the labels of what you eat.…
