so i've been running ragged lately, been a little out of energy. with me leaving my company, everyone has been taking me out to eat and i realized i can't recall the last time i had a piece of fruit. made me think of scurvy, and looked it up and saw this article and thought it was interesting.

The word healthy and fast food do not mix. The healthiest "fast food" establishment would probably be subway.

And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

The healthiest "fast food" establishment would probably be subway. the words mix just fine. there are no "healthy" restaurants. only healthy food. it's what you choose that's healthy or not. you can go to mcdonalds and get a salad, i've had that mandarin orange salad from there, it's pretty good and when you get it with light dressing it's pretty damn healthy. on the other side, if you go to subway and get the cold cut trio with cheese and mayo on white bread with chips and a full sugar soda, you're probably just as bad off as a burger and fries. you can go to just about any fast food restaurant and get something that's pretty healthy, but the point is that people don't go to fast food restaurants with that intention. |
