Thank you Senior!!! Love reading your posts!! As I was reading both your post and Patty55's, I have to agree with both of you. But, I believe the majority will NOT cook their own homemade meals, though. I don't know if it's because they're just spoiled from opening a pkg. and nuking it, or if they don't have the time b/c of working long hrs. Although. that's not an excuse, as when my mother worked (w/a family of 12 children) the older ones would do the cooking after school and on Saturday's. We even had a small garden, never ate expensive meat, mostly chicken or fish. Only had ice cream once a wk on Sunday for a treat, and always baked homemade cakes,cookies, etc. We didn't use butter, whole milk, (drank powered milk) No eggs for breakfast, but oatmeal or corn flakes. I think the reason we see SO many overweight children and adults is b/c of the horrible fake foods that the majority that ppl in our country eats. Chock full of carbs, sugar, corn syrup, sodas, diet drinks and diet fake food products,etc,etc. Which puts high strains on the insurance/welfare systems b/c of the illnesses which stem from obesity. Wow, SO sad!
