They Can Keep All The Additives

Turned on the TV the other morning and caught the tail end of a piece talking about people not cooking anymore (Doctor S. Gupta was speaking). It got me thinking how the meals I prefer now are from fresh whole foods. The taste, the smells in the kitchen and the way I feel after eating them, all have made it out shine any prepackaged fare. Grant it there is not always time to make fancy, complex, long cooking meals but there are a lot of quick, simple, tasty things that can be made. Slow cookers work for evenings that are going to be hectic. Finding those middle isles in the grocery store do not have much that call to me anymore. Never thought the veggie section would look so good, that was the skipped isle before. Now like seeing what looks good at that trip and going with it. After many years of convenience foods I like being in control of what is really in the meals. Noticed the family seems to comment (positively) on these meals. Have to admit they do not eat all the veggies yet. But they are coming around to more and more of the healthier meals. There is hope for someday.
