“Peanut Butter is Good for You.”

In my office where I work, I overheard my co worker talking to another employee. They went on and on about the meals they make for their family. The crazy part is they sounded kind of like how I grew up. The entire time I was listening they only really mentioned Chicken as the protein. Obviously it was the minor ingredient, because it was with noodles, or a salad, or even breaded and fried in $20 worth of oil to make Chick Fila sandwiches! This drove me nuts because I couldn’t say anything to them because one it wasn’t my conversation and two why would they listen to a young guy when they are older and listen to the pharmacist?!

My co worker did mention when he gets home and the kids have eaten and maybe there isn’t any food, he throws on a steak. I was like, heck ya! But then he says, “oh and I throw on a head of broccoli.” Dang ok well that’s not the worst thing I think. Then my other co worker says with a question that he basically doesn’t eat carbs. Then he goes, “No I eat plenty of carbs! Ya after that dinner I’m still super hungry so I make an English muffin with peanut butter.” My other co worker says, “Well Peanut Butter is good for you! At least that’s what they say.”

It does go to show that the world has corrupted many generations of man into thinking the only way to be healthy is through THEIR specific diet. But the only reason for it is because it makes them more money and you can market crazy bad foods.
