What Did That Say? I Ate What?

While I was out and about today, I wandered over to a popular end cap. It was shiny and full and lots of people were heading over to it checking it out.

Fancy, Shiny, Squishy Bag of "Food"

Now, since being on RealW8 and changing to a healthier lifestyle, I no longer eat anything from bag, box, package. But, call it temptation, call it curiosity, call it courage, I took a LOOK, a peek. I picked up the somewhat soft squishy package of spaghetti sauce, turned the package over to read the label. Look at what I saw?!

Is That Even Food?

I keep thinking, what?
Why would anyone want to eat that?
Do you know what all those horrible ingredients will do to your body?

Make it Up Fresh! 

Why Not Make it Up Fresh? Fresh Food = Healthy Lifestyle

Why not stick with your whole food, real food?
Get real tomatoes, real garlic, real onions, real black pepper, water and a real sweetener, like barley malt and make it up fresh.
No Chemicals.
No Fake colors.
No preservatives.

Better for your body. Healthier Lifestyle.

Simple. Easy. Fresh.
