eating

it's gotten so complicated.


it used to be, you ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner, period. and ok, so maybe that wasn't the best way to do it but at least it was easy to remember. not to mention, it tasted good.

what you ate for breakfast was bacon and eggs, what you ate for lunch was a sandwich, and what you ate for dinner was meatloaf. in between all that eating, you lived you life. and living your life didn't include one big guilt trip kavetching about:

  • gluten vs. non-gluten
  • organic vs. pesticide
  • soy vs. everything (including soy vs. soy!)
  • fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables!!!!!!
  • vegetarian vs. regular vs. vegan vs. anorexia
  • kroger vs. farmer's market
  • wild-caught vs. who-even-thinks-about-where-it's-caught
  • free range vs. all hemmed in
  • red meat! BOO, red meat!
  • processed vs. even-though-everyone-is-busier-than-ever,-make-it-yourself
  • frequent snacks vs. 3 squares. and the snacks can't be anything fun.
  • non-dairy vs. evil dairy
  • local vs. shipped in. try eating local oranges in ohio. 
  • fair trade vs. is it really fair trade or are we all being duped?
  • fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables!!!!!!
  • eggs are bad vs. eggs aren't as bad as we thought
  • caffeine is bad vs. caffeine isn't as bad as we thought
  • vs. oh, yes, caffeine is as bad as we thought!
  • vs., no it's not.
  • peanut allergy, peanut allergy, peanut allergy!
  • michelle obama turning every school kid's dream upside down

even the water's not safe.
