Health and Wellness..: McDonalds fast food..
http://theycallitfood.blogspot.com/2014/01/mcdonalds-fast-food.html
My takes on health and food issues which affect me and may well be affecting you. Saturday, January 11, 2014. I paid a visit to one of the outlets yesterday, and ordered a Big Mac and a Signature wrap Combo. Fast it wasn’t. Five minutes to produce a Signature Wrap that included the equivalent of ONE ‘Janes’ chicken finger and a tiny amount of salad. The burger patties in the Big Mac were smaller than the average cardboard drinks coaster found in bars, and were the driest looking things I have ever seen.

My takes on health and food issues which affect me and may well be affecting you. Tuesday, February 28, 2012. Can any foodstuff where almost a quarter of its weight is Sodium be any good for anybody. I am not talking about a bag of potato chips, by the way. This is on the back of a pack of Presidents Choice Mediterranean Chicken. Apart from having salt added, it has these too. As an added treat for Type 2 Diabetics, it also has Dextrose added. On the front of the pack, it states that there are no added n...

Health and Wellness..: Kool-aid..

My takes on health and food issues which affect me and may well be affecting you. Sunday, September 23, 2012. Not being born and bred in North America, there are some expressions that go by me like they were never said. One is ‘been at the Kool-aid’. Don’t get me wrong, I knew that it was a drink, but it is only in the last two days that I have been at close quarters with a sachet (packet) of the drink mix. Are they kidding or what? How about I add a couple of teaspoons or maybe none at all. There was a ...

Person needs to drink eight glasses of water per day. http:/ www.snopes.com/medical/myths/8glasses.asp. The current thinking is that maybe eight is over the top in view of the fact that we get water from sources other than drinks. http:/ www.cbc.ca/news/health/story/2012/06/08/water-eight-glasses-myth.html?

My takes on health and food issues which affect me and may well be affecting you. Saturday, March 1, 2014. Recycling – kiddie car seats. They are marked as recyclable but recycling centers will not take them. In Canada, There is a center in Alberta, which is really useful for people living in Eastern Canada. So why isn’t there a recycling center which will take them in Ontario? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A question for you. There was a time when we used to buy fresh food daily. It didn't all...

Health and Wellness..: Canada bans Marmite
http://theycallitfood.blogspot.com/2014/01/canada-bans-marmite.html
My takes on health and food issues which affect me and may well be affecting you. Friday, January 24, 2014. Http:/ www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-25867613. There is talk of meat products in the article but that can’t apply to Marmite because Marmite is entirely vegetarian. Personally, I think that Canada is just jealous, and to be honest, only Brits know what to do with it. Here in Canada, you find Marmite in the BAKING section in grocery stores because the jar has mention of yeast on the label.

Best of British: May 2013
http://bobritish.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Showcasing the Best of British. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Built on the Clyde in 1869, Cutty Sark was one of the finest and last China Clippers ever to sail the high seas. For a ten year period in its history, it held the speed record from Sydney Australia to Britain. It wasn’t carrying tea though. It had been demoted to the wool trade. Cutty Sark was at the top of a sailing ship’s game at 16 knots in a good wind, but steamships were improving and were more reliable. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Great Brita...

Best of British: September 2013
http://bobritish.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Showcasing the Best of British. Tuesday, September 17, 2013. The Best Historical drama ever made. The year was 1995, and a TV dramatization of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice hit the small screen. I didn’t watch the first of six episodes because I truly hate historical dramas, but I happened to be visiting family who insisted that I watched the second episode. Thereafter, I made sure that I was in front of a TV for the final four episodes. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Why so many manufactured goods?
