Whole Wheat Bread V. White Bread - Which One Will Prevail?…

Junk food addicts argue with health food nuts, asserting white bread to be the best. The health food nuts retaliate exclaiming about how much better store bought whole wheat bread is than white bread….

Since there wer some praise for Trader Joes, I thought I’d throw out that they are owned by Aldi’s - that’s right when you buy at Trader Joe’s you’re likely getting old overstock like the stuff in Aldi’s. Kind of scarry with organic and minimally preserved stuff.

Yep–well it does seem that to avoid total corporate cereal you either have to eat bulk oats (which we do because we are cheap) or collect the twigs and sticks in your own back yard…. Have you looked at Organic Inc.?

::Hands over ears:: I CAN’T hear you. I’d like to stay oblivious, thanks.

By the way I’m one of your latest Twitter add ons… otherwise known as…. well you know the rest ;). Cheers.

Do we really want to take nutritional advice from an emaciated (or dead)yogi? I mean, do you know what they do with a long piece of cloth when they want to purify their stomach? But what I’m really wondering is how a non-profit can own a for-profit. If the for-profit’s profits are funneled up to the non-profit, and the lawmakers would look at ethics and not profits themselves, the non-profit is making a profit. Cool for-profit tax shelter for the non-profit.

Thanks for ruining my weekend and breakfast cereal — shit, I felt SO good about my Kashi Heart to Heart. Now I just feel betrayed. Humph. JP

DON’T get me started on Nestle’ and infant formula. Evil incarnate.

Degrees of separation, you know? . . . if you trace far enough, there’s ‘evil’ in all the products we buy, like Nestle.

I am a Cherrios, Product 19 and cream of wheat kind of girl. BTW, I eat my cereal dry and drink milk from a glass. I also do not like sugar on my cereal but a dash on a grapefruit is yummy.

Kashi makes me gag. I have a box of Golden Grahams and a box of Captain Crunch in my cupboard…along with frosted mini wheats. Granted, they last us about two months because we only have it as a treat, but still…
