The Food Circus is rolling into town!
In ring #1 the ringleader is telling me the history....First it was okay to drink soda, then sugar was bad for you, so along came diet soda, but wait...artifical sweetners caused cancer, so then it was back to the regular sodas, then it was no, no wait....just kidding here is a new improved diet soda, no calories....but it'll make you fat?! Ring #2 is showcasing how fat free foods have too much sugar and sugar free foods have too much fat and in Ring #3 we have the Advertising clowns chucking free candy, both sugar and fat free varieties into the crowd and the vendors are calling up and down the stands, Free diet pills! Weight Loss Surgery! Electroshock Ab Belts! and on and on and on until you are ready to rip your own arm off (with it's attractive heart monitor/pedometer) and use it to karate chop your way to the exit! So, as you leave the circus, you stop at the farmstand where you buy all the ingrediants to switch to an all natural, 100% whole grain food diet, all organics, no preservatives, etc....then your doc tells you, you've been feeling sick because you can't eat wheat or any other gluten containing products because your body can't digest it, but don't worry there are plenty of new gluten-free products that are available at the market, located back inside the main tent, just be sure to read the labels carefully, because most of these products are highly processed.......it never ends and it never fails....can't I just take vitamins and minerals tablets? Because this whole food circus is really no fun at all!
