You are what you eat?

If we are what we eat, then what the hell are we?

Do you know? Because I sure don't.  I can't pronounce half of the words on a nutrition label let alone be able to tell you what they are.  

Does this bother you? 

It bothers me.  

The only thing I know (*sort of)  right now, at this very moment is whole foods. 

Most people don't even know what a "whole food" is.  (Other than the grocery store!!)

I'll tell you in simple terms..A whole food is just that.  The ingredient is itself. 

Here are some examples:

Banana

Potato

Water

Blueberry

Chicken

Tomato

Rice

Black Beans

Get it??

Got it??

Good.  

If you can identify it by name and ingredient (p.s. they must match!) it's a whole food. 

*Let's not forget to ask ourselves...

Is this genetically modified?

Treated with pesticides?

Treated humanely? 

Organic?

(More on this later)

Ugh, what the hell happened to food?
