[Born to Conserve]

The diabetes epidemic is a direct result of the “Food Pyramid” forced on us by the government. That, and the general destruction of the family. When I was a kid, my mother was working, and I had free access to the kitchen. Just a decade before, she was not working, and my older siblings had zero access to the kitchen. You simply did not eat between meals. You were hungry at mealtime.

If you want to do things right, ask the government what to do, and do the exact opposite.

Who on earth consults the government on how to eat? I don’t know any such person. And I’ll bet none of them could even tell you what the current “Food Pyramid” states, either. I sure have no idea, nor do I give a crap...
