What the 'professionals' won't tell you...

According to McDonald's website, their hamburger buns consist of:

"Enriched flour (bleached wheat flour, malted barley flour, niacin, reduced iron, Thiamin Mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, enzymes), water high fructose corn syrup, sugar yeast, soybean oil and/or partially hydrogenated soybean oil, contains 2% or less of the following: salt, calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate, wheat gluten, ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride, dough conditioners (sodium stearoyl lactylate, datem, ascorbic acid, azodicarbonamide, mono-and diglycerides, ethoxylated monoglycerides, monocalcium phosphate, enzymes, guar gum, calcium peroxide, soy flour), calcium propionate and sodium propionate (preservatives), soy lecithin" That Is Just The BUN!

 

How Can You Identify REAL Food?

Real food almost always has the following characteristics:

: It's grown

: Variable quality

: Spoils fast

: REQUIRES PREPARATION

: Vibrant colours, rich textures

: Authentically flavourful

: Strong conection to land and culture

 

Processed "food products," meanwhile, tend to have these traits:

: Produced, manufactured in a factory

: Neat, convenient, pre-packaged

: Always the same

: Stays "fresh" for years, if not forever

: Dull, bland

: Contains fillers, additives and preservatives

: Artificially flavorful

: No connection to land or culture

 

Shopping Guidelines for Real, Health-Promoting Food:

Regardless of where you do your grocery shopping, these are the signs of high-quality, health-promoting foods you want to look for:

1. It's grown without pesticides and chemical fertilzers (organic foods fit this description, but so do some non-organic foods)

2. It's not genetically modified

3. It contains no added growth hormones, antibiotics, or other drugs

4. It does not contain any artificial ingredients, including chemical preservatives

5. It is fresh (keep in mind that if you have to choose between wilted organic produce or fresh conventional produce, the latter may be the better option)

6: It did not come from a factory farm - chickens, pork, salmon! Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon is factory farmed fish.

7: It is grown with the Laws of Nature in mind (meaning animals are fed their native diets, not a mix of grains and animal byproducts, and have free-range access to the outdoors)

8: It is grown in a sustainable way (using minimal amounts of water, protecting the soil from burnout, and turning animal wastes into natural fertilizers instead of environmental pollutants)

If the food meets these criteria, it is most likely a wise choice, and would fall under the designation of "real food".
