<laughs> It does indeed!!!
I don't eat much fast food for multiple reasons, but I don't look down
on it. Never have, never will! There actually are a lot of healthy ones
if you shop around and are careful. The market demands it.
I'm sure I'd catch hell here if people knew I've been regularly using
"Egglands Best" for the Jelly loaf I make every weekend for dad. They
really are worth the price.
