This article is introducing highlights of the new USDA “dietary guidelines”.. as if the food pyramid wasn’t bad enough..
Note that they are trying to “decrease meat consumption” and “increase low fat dairy”…
This quote is particularly disturbing:
“children think whole milk is now disgusting because it is so creamy”
…umm wtf?
“We might even decrease our portion sizes when we realize that the 16-ounce steak we were thinking of ordering contains enough protein for our entire family.”
An entire family?! Really?! I almost feel bad.
That link is f’ing depressing. A nonstop increase in cardiovascular issues, and the solution is _more_ grains and low fat dairy? They’re constantly spiking people’s blood sugar, and all of those sugary carbs are making them even more hungry! How can this still be recommended??
This is pretty much how I felt when I read that: http://i.imgur.com/W1abX.png FUUUUU
Btw, I still need a good source for bacon! Ya boy’s dying over here for that bacon fix.
Caps, best bet is to contact a local farm and tell them exactly what you’re looking for. If you find something let me know, I’ll gladly split a part of a pig.
