Seeing is believing...

I admit I learn a lot on Twitter and YouTube. They are great places for info sharing. For example, I've hear of this urban myth: a happy meal that's been shown around in perfect condition that's 4 years old. The healthy food circles are always bringing this up. Well thanks to a Tweet from @kandaka_long I now have proof.

Here's the video of said old McD's food, preserved without any interference of it's own composition (whatever that may be): http://youtu.be/4IGtDPG4UfI

Food for Thought

Here's some reading I've been doing. I share a lot of this on Twitter @ChefAsata, but thought I'd do a collective post here for those who aren't on Twitter (which is a LOT of people). This is an interesting world we live in and I'm always open to learning, seeing new points of view and stimulating some critical thinking. Enjoy!
