Food Should only be Natural not Fake! Enjoy this Hot and Sour Turkey Soup
Things have to be real to be called food in my book. You know, apple oranges, avocado, chicken, sweet potatoes, pork, shrimp, almonds, mangos. Chemicals, artificial sweeteners, colors, dyes, fat blockers, preservatives, pesticides, plastics, paint thinners, oven cleaners, weed killers, and spider spray just don’t count as food.
Have you ever looked up the uses for some of these chemicals commonly found in our “food”? And what exactly is Yellow #5 or Blue #6? What purpose do aluminum, sodium benzoate, quinolone, carmoisine, and tartrazine 19140 serve in the body? I was reading a package the other day and its second ingredient was Sunset Yellow FCF15985 (E110). I wasn’t sure if I was to bake, broil, or deep-fry “yellow,” so I decided to skip that ingredient for dinner.
Many of these chemicals are designed to add color to your paint or remove stains from your carpets, to build navy ships and bulletproof vests. They are not food! Therefore, they should not be consumed.
Use them to decorate your house and build bomb-proof shelters, but do not put them in your mouth. The American Medical Society has coined a term for these industrial chemicals found in sprayed on foods: obesogens. These obesogens can literally make you fat! Sadly, and ironically, most “diet” packaged foods are loaded with obesogens.
Say goodbye to the fake, packaged foods and start enjoying delicious homemade recipes like my Hot and Sour Turkey Soup.
