Thanks for wheat info. I am tempted only occasionally by Trader Joe’s tiny 99-cent sourdough boule; at least it’s non-GMO.

AS for Singapore, I was there a very long time ago— 1978. It was wonderful then and I’m sure it still is.

Have you read Lee Kwan Yew’s book, From Third World to First : The Singapore Story: 1965-2000. He was remarkable and so is his book. Someone should send a copy to BoyBarack, who is missing the Leadership gene.

Singapore has the highest concentration of rich people in the world. 1 out of every 6 is a millionaire!

Their formula is simple> No unemployment comp program, no food stamp program, no welfare to working age adults. Result is the unemployment rate is Minus 40%. (40% more jobs than there are citizens) So this country of 3.5 million imports 2 million foreign workers on 2 year work permits.

You can always indulge on foods you enjoy, in moderation. So no need to give up Trader Joe’s tiny 99-cent sourdough boule :-)
