The world may be shrinking, but we’re all getting bigger. See how globalization is affecting the way we all eat—for better or for (mostly) worse.

    Even rat poison in small doses can be consumed every day without killing you outright. Look on a can of Mountain Dew for example. Gee, brominated vegetable oil. gimmie some more of that please. Folks, i’m not a conspiricy buff, but I have to tell you, that the government really don’t give a rats poisoned ass about you me or anyone else. The FDA is a regulatory joke that can be bought and persuaded with a little smoke up the behind. Please wake up everyone and start growing your own veggies. Drink out of a glass, and spend less then you make.The world has lived on the survival of the fittest, species depend on it.Don’t we?

    Over the course of the last 20 years we have become a country who enjoys eating out and restaurants have seduced us into eating larger portions and gosh, who doesn’t like great “meals”.  Yes, we’ve overdosed and some of us have even become addicted to food.  With the downturn of the economy and the added stress this has placed on our lives and our pocketbooks, eating out and consuming is less will definitely shorten our waistlines and hopefully improve our state of health.
