Altho my description of those fast food hamburgers is that altho they may
smell good, the texture and flavor of the bread is goo, the lettuce and
tomato is dead smush, and the meat is fat city. That is not to say they
have no nutrition, but it is no wonder the health of the population is
deteriorating...
The word health means whole---these foods found in the fast food locations
are so far from the farm and so far from being whole, they may as well be
in cyberspace. It's like, well, formula is close to breastmilk....

Jack, you know I love your wisdom and wit, and always agree with everything
you say, but I couldn't let this comment slide. When one is really hungry,
nothing fits the bill like a big greasy Big Mac and fries. Paper mache?
Oy!
