From today on, it’s known as the Paleo Pig-Out
So……do you think that you’re man/woman enough to take down the Paleo Pig-Out?

It wasn’t so long ago that America was fed by an army of family farmers.
Local food produced by local farmers.
And every once in a while, something would go wrong and somebody would get sick from eating contaminated food.
And sometimes, maybe more than one somebody would get sick.
But, today…when a couple of America’s largest egg producers make a mistake and ships out a whole mess o’ eggs contaminated with Salmonella, over 1300 Americans nationwide get sick. (as of Aug. 19/2010)
And when confronted with this news….the food safety branch of the egg producers association responds by informing America’s egg eaters that the “voluntary” egg recall affects less than 1% of the 80 billion eggs produced in the United States each year.
As if that’s supposed to be comforting news to the over 1300 people who became infected with salmonella enteritidis.
So….who’s to blame?
Because, you know that the lawsuits are already being prepared.
Someone is going to get the blame.
Who’s the bad guy?
Or, is it all of the above?
We all know that factory farms are good at producing large quantities of food at the cheapest possible price.
And sure, factory farmed food may taste like crap, and….
.
But, at least it’s cheap…..except when your child gets sick and ends up in the hospital dehydrated with bloody diarrhea.

According to researchers, low carb diets are better than low fat diets for:
Isn’t that strange.
A low-carb diet consisting of (20 g/d for 3 months) in the form of low–glycemic index vegetables with unrestricted consumption of fat and protein turns out to be healthier than the universally accepted low-fat diet consisting of limited energy intake (1200 to 1800 kcal/d; ≤30% calories from fat).
Strange.
Vegetables & meat are healthier than grains.
Weird.
Who would have guessed that???
BTW, this study was funded by the National Institutes of Health – no Atkins money in sight.
