Welcome to Litsy!

This is an incredible read about why ultra-processed food is so damaging to our health and society at large. Amazing research to back up the author's claims. Highly recommend if you're interested in learning more about health.

#HyggeHourReadathon

Home today due to a snow day- the falling flakes outside my window are lulling me to sleep. Trying to catch up on posts. For this past Sunday‘s #HyggeHour, I did not read but used the tagged cookbook to make a pot of Jane Brody‘s chili,which warmed up the kitchen. Add chicken wings & corn muffins & we enjoyed our usual Super Bowl Sunday. The hygge was in the cooking with love.

#mtcookbook - I‘m trying an approach that worked this week- Soup is my favorite food- and i love Paprika and mushrooms but wanted hearty vs a pre meal soup- so I added potato, cabbage, onion, garlic, white beans and kale- It worked!!!! I‘m calling it my Hungarian-Irish Stew. And it was a win with my mom and son too!

I didn‘t think I was going to get through this book this weekend, but I‘m knocking things off the to do list. This is a well researched, comprehensive, non-judgmental, eye opening look at ultra processed food and the ramifications of it playing a big role in our diet. I appreciate the inclusion of the UK, USA and Canada in his research

Super Bowl Sunday #gotaylorsboyfriend my doughnut was made by a local whole grain bakery so in this one instance I‘ve avoided UPF 👏🏻👏🏻 to quote Graham Norton “if anyone is going to have an army, it might as well be Taylor Swift. She uses her power for good” 😊 if I had young daughters I‘d have no issues with them being a Swiftie

Im so glad I read/listened to this book. I thought it had several interesting parts i had not heard about such as the experiment in the early 1900‘s with infants and toddlers and food, and the Nestle Barge in South America. But most of all it reinspired me to remember that there is a way to feel better, and that my brain and body are being hijacked by ultra capitalist companies. I love the “was this made to nourish me or make money for someone “
