Bill Maher triggers with “fat” again…

Plant based broth? What is it called?

 

Unfortunately, we are all pleased to be "average". What is wrong with being "mainstream" and "typical"? Nothing, as long as we are talking about the post-WW2 1945-1965 era.

The current incarnation of what is "average"? Not a pretty sight. And as long as we can claim victim status (and get freebies for our efforts), being "average" today is what we WILL continue to be. Our healthcare system is WAY out of whack, although I don't want this thread to continue down this path. Too many ideas and not enough discernment.

As long as you have little or no skin in the game (ie, ANY game), being fat, lazy, stupid and entitled is the "Flavor of the Era". It just is.

 

In 1913 a nobel prize-winning physician Albert Schweitzer visited Gabon, Africa. He could find no disease among the natives that hunted and gathered their food. No cancer. They died at birth or from falling out of a tree or being eaten by an animal. Never disease. The same story goes on and on about primitive societies that had not been introduced to the modern diet (white flour & sugar). Dr. Weston Price a Harvard trained dentist who believed dental health is a good indicator of physical health. In the 1930's he visited primitive people on 5 continents and found out that they had beautiful teeth and strong bodies. Think about that for a 2nd and then think about our friends in the UK.

It makes sense. Eat healthy meat that gets to run around. Eat fruits, nuts and veggies you would have to grow or forage for. Exercise. Drink water. All of these primitive societies partake in some kind of natural drug as well. They all get high on some crazy shroom or root. That is in nothing I have read but it's true and for another day.

You can't think you are doing yourself a favor by drinking a diet coke or eating a low fat whatever. Real stuff is good. Fake stuff is really bad. Fake stuff has been made to trick your taste buds into pure joy. Lastly, back to coca-cola. I have been to the poorest areas in Africa on mission trips. There are coke signs everywhere and people with no money somehow have a full wooden case of 24 coke bottles in their home. Coke is ruining the health of these poor people who don't know better. I like a coke every once in awhile but I think Coca-Cola the corporation is bad. I want to say evil but I'm not sure that is fair. Maybe it is.

 

Thanks for posting the recipe of the soup. It was delicious.
