hamburger
I woke up today with a mad craving for a hamburger. Strange, I know. I was seriously considering running to Burger King and ordering two veggie burgers. Even though I'm short on cash and I already have food at home. I ended up just eating rice and lentils with steamed cauliflower. And later I had a giant texas grapefruit. And the craving is long gone. So I guess it's better to eat some cooked food as long as it's healthy than to binge on crap and feel gross full afterwards.
Grant came over last night and I made him two raw vegan meals. He thought it was delicious but he also thought that I was starting to obsess too much over what I eat and that's just as bad if not worse than not caring at all. I mean he has a point. *sigh* The thing is, we have to eat to survive. And in America we have soooo many choices of what we can eat. And I don't trust what the FDA and the government and the food labels and the grocery stores and the online health websites and popular diet books say. They'll take something crappy and mention that it has tomatoes in it and tell you how tomatoes are good for you! So this thing that you're eating must be good for you too! And people never make the connection that the only thing that makes a spinach pizza even slightly healthy is the....spinach! And nothing else! Might as well just eat the spinach and leave out the crap. Americans get sucked into these lables of sugar free, fat free, sodium free, low carb bullshit and they never want to face the fact that the only way a product could be made "sugar free" is if it were replaced by something equally if not more horrible than sugar. Come on, people. If you have a sweet tooth eat fruit. Eat all the fruit you want! It's meant for humans to eat! And we aren't eating it! We're too caught up in our addictions. Yes, addictions. I obviously still have very strong addictions...speaking of hamburgers, cheese, milkshakes, pizza, lasagna, cookies, muffins, cake...I could go on forever. These foods provide little to no nourishment for the body. That's why we can eat and eat and eat them forever and feel "full" but never nourished. If you're eating foods that's nourishing, you don't binge. Simple as that. You know when to stop. And subconsiously we all know this. I don't need to tell you that. But our addictions are so loud and almost screaming at us everyday to the point that we tell our common sense to just shut up so we can eat some fucking cheese and crackers. And besides there's some calcium in that right?
