How To Tell You're Getting the Point About What To Eat!

If, when you're at the check-out counter at your local grocery store, and the cashier has to at least occasionally ask you, "What's this?!" or if he/she has a difficult time looking up the item on the list of produce items for sale, you're getting the point about what sorts of things you need to buy and eat. Examples: kale, chard, ginger root, water cress, collard greens , shitake mushrooms and so on...

If, when you go into a gas station "Food Mart" to pay for your gasoline bill, and you realize you are surrounded on all sides by "foods" and "beverages" that are harmful to your body, you're getting the point about how Americans are slowly poisoning themselves with the kind of junk such places sell. It's a travesty that they're allowed to use the term "Food Mart." They ought to be made to use the term "Junk Food Mart" to describe themselves. Even if such places happen to have fruit for sale, it's invariably unappealing, artificial-seeming, red "Delicious" apples, or else very green, plastic-looking bananas. It's as if even the fruit in gas station "Food Marts" has had the life sapped from it by the deadly junk that surrounds it.
