Bugs In The Food.

Have you ever thought much about it? How many bugs you eat in a given week. I know. I know. You don't like to think about it. Like the times you open up that bag of getting a little old, flour and find it crawlin' (now listen to the girls scream) or how many bugs are in that bag of corn chips you like so much. But the fact is, you eat 'em, especially if you don't take the time to examine what you eat like when you're in front of the tube, hypnotized.

I live in an agricultural area. This knowledge is a fact of life around here. Stuff that looks like it ain't fit to sell on the shelf or in a basket usually ends up processed into something like ketchup for example. The home for second rate tomatoes.

This points out a problem with food labels. They never tell what the grasshopper content of your chips are and even more importantly how fattening they are. The last time I found an opportunity to tell a guy that he stopped chewin' and dazed off. It was fun. And do I eat em'. Not if I can help it!

Here's a food horror story for you to digest. It was in a true biography about a couple who sailed their boat to Mexico sometime in the 1970's. They went to the meat market and found them spraying Raid on the meat to keep the flies off of it. The couple decided to catch their own fish from then on.
