    commented on Beware health claims, Yogurt in court, and my sad break-up with nancy's yogurt.

    Amen, Coco!
    Redux of what I said elsewhere: it’s about time the government stepped in and did something about all these ridiculous advertising claims and gimmicks.
    I used to use Activa before I stopped using all commercially flavored yogurts. I got disgusted with the amounts of sugar I was getting in all these ‘flavored’ yogurts - in addition to the expense.
    We now just buy the White Mountain Bulgarian whole milk yogurt (not to be confused with Mountain High brand). As far as my ‘digestion’ is concerned, it ‘works’ every bit as good, is far tastier -with a bit of my homemade low-sugar jam, maple syrup or agave nectar on it - or even plain, and less expensive.
    Buying White Mountain also supports a more local economy rather than the ‘gi-normous’ industrial faux foods corporation. Just a thought

    commented on 'What I Eat' for you.

    Some Peet’s Major Dickenson’s coffee to start, then a melange of whole grain cooked cereal - with barley - low fat milk, golden raisins, pumpkin seeds and pecans.
    Lunch was at a local restaurant where I had chicken tortilla soup with some fresh fruit and coffee. I stole some french fried off my husbands plate.
    Dinner was scrambled eggs with onions, spinach and trumpet mushrooms - a bit of grated parmesan, and whole grain toast, fresh berries and a glass of wine.
    Snacked on dried asian pear slices that I make in my home dehydrator.
