We eat as though we aren't going to end up in one either - actually DH
won't as he wants his ashes scattered along Las Vegas Blvd. - but we
believe in making good food choices to maximize our quality of life. I
do use butter but very little and likely less than once a week. We
aren't into the sandwiches or toast thing so don't use butter as a
spread. We naturally drift towards - low sugar foods, low sodium foods,
low fat meats, low cholesterol, homecooking & lots of raw fruits &
veggies on a daily basis. We naturally avoid - white sugar & flour,
high fat foods, commercial convenience foods, & sweets. Will these
choices help of live longer, maybe. More importantly we feel they give
us a better quality of live with less illness & more energy than if we
were laden down with the toxicity of all the frankenfoods available.
