Whatcha Eating??

Ummm....can you explain a sausage roll?

http://en.wikipedia....ki/Sausage_roll

Traditionally it's ground pork inside puff pastry, always seasoned with sage. A sort of meat pie. I make it a bit different, I add chopped veggies to the ground pork or ground turkey. Very yummy.

I will have to try that.

I know this is supposed to mean something....I just don't know what.

Ham is in your name!!!!

Oh yea....that.

Technically it's Miss Ham if you're nasty.

You can either make it all from scratch, or do it the easy way and buy the Pepperidge Farm pastry and use the sage pork sausage, just add what you want to it.

u nasty Ham..............

This may be the most pathetic grilled cheese sandwich ever, sucks!

When the kids are wailing, the boss wasn’t happy with your presentation, and the kitchen is anything but pristine, what mom hasn’t thrown up her hands and given in to demands for chicken nuggets? Like, three times a week?

Maybe Mom should tell the kids: Be careful what you wish for.

This week 17-year-old British factory worker Stacey Irvine was rushed to the hospital when she collapsed, struggling to breathe. During the exam, doctors were stunned to learn that Ms. Irvine had never in her life eaten fruit or vegetables; instead she had eaten almost nothing but fast-food chicken nuggets since she was two years old.

Her mother, Evonne Irvine, told reporters she had gone to great lengths to try to feed her daughter more nutritious food, at one point even trying to starve the girl, but it hadn’t worked. Stacey responded that, once she started eating nuggets, she “loved them so much they were all I would eat.”

What’s so bad about nuggets?

They would be bad enough if they were merely chunks of chicken that had been breaded and deep-fried in oil. One documentary describes McDonald's nuggets as chickens “stripped down to the bone, and then 'ground up’ into a chicken mash, then combined with a variety of stabilizers and preservatives, pressed into familiar shapes, breaded and deep fried, freeze dried, and then shipped to a McDonald’s near you.”

Aside from chicken and oil, those “stabilizers and preservatives” are said to include dimethylpolysiloxane, a form of silicone also used in cosmetics. Another additive is tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), a form of butane. According to one report, chicken is only about 50 percent of a McNugget; the remainder is a mixture of corn-derived ingredients, sugars and synthetic substances.

If a four-piece serving of Chicken McNuggets carried a nutrition label, at first glance it wouldn’t seem too scary: 190 calories, 12 grams of carbs and 12 grams of fat. But consider that more than half of those calories (56 percent) are from fat—and protein accounts for a mere four percent. Add a whopping 360 mg sodium, and its image as “the more nutritious fast-food snack” fades.

What’s the worst that can happen?

Aside from collapsing and gasping for air, as Stacey Irvine did? Doctors also discovered that the veins in Ms. Irvine’s tongue were swollen and she was diagnosed with anemia. Further, such a high salt intake can increase a person’s blood pressure (which ultimately can put them at risk for a stroke or heart attack).

McNuggets are low in nutrients everyone needs, such as calcium, fiber, vitamins, antioxidants and healthy fats, so a steady diet of nuggets means missing out on the health benefits of those ingredients.

Her mom should have beat her ass when she was a toddler and let ger starve until she ate something else. Letting your small child eat that shit all the time.... what do you expect. Another example of idiots breeding and then looking everywhere but inward for their situation.

The Mom should have been charged with neglect. If the kid doesn't like other food then too bad! You don't just keep feeding the kid chicken nuggets for two decades.

Mine, too. If we didn't like something we had to sit at the dinner table until bedtime if we didn't eat it and then the offensive food was served to us for breakfast the next day. I had to do that once a week on liver night and the only thing that saved me was when the dog happened to be in the house when my mom wasn't in the kitchen. I wouldn't recommend doing that because it did cause some life-long problems but there are some pretty spoiled kids today when it comes to the food choices they make.

My friend ate mostly fast food for 20 years and now has auto immune issues and kidneys that no longer work. I don't believe that is a coincidence at all. Sadly he doesn't see a correlation and was still eating fast food in the hospital.

Cleaned up my diet over the last month. Leaning a lot towards vegetarian meals with chicken and seafood as well. Dropped 8.5 pounds already, which is really cool. I'm going to switch over to doing a majority of veggie meals for a few months and see how things go.

I've gone to the Paleo Diet after one of my bosses at work showed me a video of how sugar is the real source of obesity in America. Already lost 10 pounds.

Refined sugar without a doubt is a killer.

I've cut down, and am phasing out meat primarily for high cholesterol and other health concerns. I'm also eliminating anything with processed sugar, and snack foods etc. In short, no junk and little if any meat.

I'm mainly curious to see how I feel after eating primarily a plant based diet for a few months as well as my blood work numbers. Aesthetics is a bonus.
