Yeah Sherri; was: A Splenda Way to Die!

[Guest guest]

i'm with you on this topic, Sherri.

i believe in using sugar and other

foods in moderation. Too much of

any one thing is bad for us and i am

glad there are many choices for us to

make.

i like raw foods but i also enjoy cooking

too much to go 100% raw diet. i think those

that choose to live that way, then good for

them. While i enjoy learning about the

choices we are all making, i don't like people

trying to push their views or calling us ironic

or whatever because we have made an

informed choice different from their

choice.

PT,

Since a healthy, balanced, diet varies from person to person, I don't

think that there is a recipe for the perfect diet, muchless lifestyle

choices. I believe in promoting empowerment and have found that by

allowed my offspring to make their own choices, they were not muddled

or held back by my expectations. There are many paths...

While I eat a raw food diet, I do not force my children to eat that way, nor my

wife. They are all vegeterians. It is unrealistic to expect children, who have

peer pressure issues to contend with, to have to eat raw foods. In a world that

still scoffs at vegeterians for the most part, how would it be if they went to a

party or an event with their friends and there was nothing for them to eat. All

things in time. What you do is teach correct principles and let people govern

themselves.
