Reminds me of the Lethal Weapon scene where the kids said they were boycotting tuna because the fishing kills dolphins.

Throughout my life, eggs were good and then they were bad, then the whites were good, but the yolks were bad. Coffee was the same way....good, then bad, back to good.
I've always used REAL butter and it's come around now to the good.

Its always been everything in moderation. Most of those studies use numbers that no normal person would reach (because most have an agenda).

Years ago I read an excellent book by Dr. Dean Edell . He hosted a very popular radio show too.

anyway, his book is excellent. the gist of it is "all things in moderation"
simple but smart.

65 Years Ago

A little old lady from Wisconsin had worked in and around her family dairy farms since she was old enough to walk, with hours of hard work and little compensation.

When canned Carnation Milk became available in grocery stores in the 1940s, she read an advertisement offering $5,000 for the best slogan.




She thought to herself, I know everything there is to know about milk and dairy farms. I can do this! She sent in her entry, and several weeks later, a black car pulled up in front of her house.

A large man got out, knocked on her door and said, "Ma'am,.....The president of Carnation milk absolutely LOVED your entry.....So much, in fact, that we are here to award you $1,000 even though we will not be able to use it for our advertisements!"

He did, however, have one printed up to hang on his office wall. (Here it is:)

True story!!

Carnation Milk is best of all.
No tits to pull, no hay to haul
No buckets to wash, no :censored2: to pitch
Just poke a hole in the son-of-a-bitch!
