A process to lengthen shelf life can shorten your life! Trans Fatty
Acids created by hydogenation have been linked to cancer,
cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Don't risk it!

Wow, this one is going to be hard I think. I went grocery shopping yesterday, and had to put a lot back on the shelves. I had to read every single label of everything I picked up. :eek Every single pre-packaged or convenience food had PHO (partially hydrogenated oils). Icky!
As far a snacks, I had to find some new stuff. Instead of cookies, which we normally have for dessert a few times a week, I bought a big Swiss chocolate bar and we're eating a few squares at a time. Much better than Oreo's in my opinion. :yum DH likes snack crackers (cheezeits and those types of things) so I'm trying to find a recipe for spicy peanuts that I can make in the oven.
Also there was PHO in macaroni and cheese, frozen burritos, and cream of mushroom soup. What are we going to eat this week?? :O
