Organic Junk Food

You know what just gets my goat? Foods that are labeled “All Natural” or “Organic” but that are really just glorified junk food sold for for more dough because it is supposedly healthy.

Let’s be honest here; organic cane juice is a fancy way of saying sugar, and it raises your blood sugar just like sugar does. Same goes for honey. And what about that “all-natural” blueberry muffin mix. Must be loads healthier than Jiffy’s muffin mix for sure- after all, it’s natural!! Don’t fall for the “all-natural” myth. Who even knows what that means? The FDA doesn’t have a definition for it. And if there is no standard by which a term is defined, then what the heck… strawberry flavored syrup should be “all natural” too. Oh, and just FYI- it is!

All-natural, organic, cane juice sweetened chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. Junk food by every healthy sounding modifier is still junk food.

And if you disagree, then you sir, are worse than Hitler.

    Great post! I totally agree! I don’t know how the marketing departments of junk food companies sleep at night. I think the less chemicals used the better, but sugar is sugar.

    The comment about Hitler might be a tad harsh though… lol.
