Healthy eating tips?

Chloe Fox35 said:I think you're much better off just eating some bacon (or any other actual cut of meat if that's your thing) and bread rather than touching that processed sludge. That stuff is usually a mystery blend of meat from God knows how many different cows—not to mention how unhealthy that is—plus all the preservatives and additives they pack into it. It’s not just about the fats, either.

Bacon isn't even a "cut of meat" in terms of pure protein; it's basically just a slab of fat (lipids)😬
and honestly, with all the junk that can be stored in products like that, it's better not to even think about it...

I agree with the rest of the post, though. I think we're on the same page. 🙂

darkbison81,

Look, 🙂, I wasn't grouping bacon and "some other specific cut of meat" together. (I could have just put "or some other meat" in parentheses instead...). Those were just examples of... you know, an animal.
I meant "one or the other"—depending on the meal—for people who can't go without larger portions of meat. I mentioned a "specific cut" because when you look at a burger, it’s... well, it's way too much. 😁 (like ten patties plus all those other extras). I didn't want anyone thinking bacon was my idea of a healthy staple just because they aren't eating burgers. That's why I added the clarification in brackets.
Basically, the bacon was just an example of something that isn't exactly "healthy," though it seems like a better choice if someone is consuming a lot of meat. And honestly, seeing the body types over in the States confirms it—certain diets (like McDonald's) really change how people look. It's not just your typical weight gain...

I see how my point could be taken two different ways (and yeah... I could have worded it better), but that's what I actually meant.

Hey there!

Did anyone catch that segment on "60 Minutes" last night about healthy eating? They actually showed a clip from *Super Size Me* during the broadcast. I found the documentary pretty fascinating—even if it's a bit low-budget, it’s definitely going to grab people's attention.
