You are not eating at fast food chains everyday, your not loading up on chemicals, preservatives, sugars, and basically have a diet that consists of actually very little food. The west is well known for eating tons of junk that should not even be considered food.
I cannot agree more! When I go to the fruit stand, where they also sell mexican foods, I see food. I may not like the food but I realize it is food - just not to my liking. For instance, Mexican crema (sour cream) is too rich for me, but it is definitely a food product and I can see how others may enjoy it. On the contrary, when I go to a regular chain grocery store, I see things that I do not consider food products, and plenty of them!
Thanks for this!
