I want to point out right up front that during my extended absence from Skipping Dessert, the research department was hard at work. Our Director of Research doesn’t take breaks. Below are some of the fruits of her labors (“fruits,” get it?)
We’ve talked many times about the truth that anyone frequenting the Golden Arches or their competition isn’t really serious about living healthier. Here are some reminders why. I think “depressing” is the word you’ll be looking for when you’ve finished reading. If you can read it and still feel good driving through the BK, we don’t have much to talk about.
But there’s good news! Beer, whiskey, popcorn and pig meat, turns out they can be good for you. Which isn’t really all that much of a surprise. If you buy the right kind of any of these, they should be fine, natural products. All of which I highly recommend.
Thanks for reading. Back on Wednesday!
