Because I’m an obsessive thinker, I have some additional thoughts about food as a continuation from yesterday’s post.

Food, as it is today, isn’t really food. It’s filler. It’s big words made from oils and substances left over from other processes. Food is made from mistakes.

It’s not natural. Instead, we have pink slime instead of real meat. Organs instead of chicken breasts. Splenda and other sweeteners were originally developed to be rat poisoning. Corn puffs was the left over from making food for cattle.

At one point, Oreo was made from tallow. Now it’s cheaper with hydronated oils. It was a win for Nabisco as they can claim that it’s kosher and vegan. But it’s more damning, addictive, and tasteless..

I don’t think I’m getting to my point very well. I’m not a food historian.

But, with each passing generation, food is being developed in a lab. It’s being altered for change, shelf-life, marketability, and addictiveness. Natural vitamins and benefits are being removed just to be added back as ‘fortified’ and ‘enriched.’

Food is an ultimate change of function experiment.

And we’re all paying for it.

With each change, each generation, each passing birth, mortalitiy rates and comorbidities increase. People, relationships, and religion are pulling a part just as surely as fiber is stripped from a grain.

Diet is related to the word deity. We should be closer to god, to creation, and to energy through the intake of food.

The word nutrition means to nourish.

It’s simple. Easy. Straight forward.

By consuming food created by light… by energy… by god… we develop society. We come together. We become closer to becoming a deity and closer to a deity.

By consuming gain of function food, we become entrenched in mistakes, the bowls of society, and move away from what we should be.

…. There’s a reason why the Standard American Diet can be abbreviated to SAD.

Because it just is.
