(Lightlife Smart) Bacon

0 minutes

(Morningstar) Bacon

0 minutes

This "bacon" HAS MSG.

(Vegan Imitation) Bacon Slices

0 minutes

This "bacon" is CLEAN. They state on their website that they use "Non-GMO Textured Soy Protein" which begs the question: what is GMO Textured Soy Protein?

For the novice, "GMO" means Genetically Modified Organisms, which means that the food item has been chemically modified and may cause harm to humans, animals, and the environment. Which why there is such a big push for organic produce. According to the Journal of Organic Systems (2014 report), GMO's have been the cause of up to 22 diseases over the last 20 years. An excerpt: "A huge increase in the incidence and prevalence of chronic diseases has been reported in the United States (US) over the last 20 years. Similar increases have been seen globally. The herbicide glyphosate was introduced in 1974 and its use is accelerating with the advent of herbicide-tolerant genetically engineered (GE) crops."But I digress. ..

• 4 T                    Honey

Replace your White (bleached) Bread with Whole Grain Bread.  Your stomach will thank you. It "sticks" to the walls of your intestine, makes it difficult to do #2, and it is high in sugar.

(Sophie's Vegetarian) Calamari

0 minutes

Has CANOLA in them.

Canola:

• Canola depletes vitamin E.
• Canola increases the rigidity of membranes, which can trigger degenerative diseases.
• Because of canola's high sulfur content, it goes rancid easily, which can exacerbate allergies and compound problems for people with bronchial or asthmatic issues.
• Human studies reveal canola causes an increase in lung cancers.
• Canola can shorten lifespan of animals and lower platelet count.
• Daily canola consumption can raise your triglycerides over 40 percent.
• Canola oil molds quickly and also inhibits enzyme function.
• It opens the door for free radicals, undermining natural antioxidants, and can be linked to increased incidence of many diseases.
• Canola leaves no foul taste when it's spoiled, so it's hard to tell if you're eating rancid erucic acid.

Cardamom

0 minutes

In the 60's they discovered that nutmeg caused "Nutmeg Intoxication" (New England Journal of Medicine) . And found substantial evidence that it caused psychopharmacological effects.  In the 1500's it was used as an abortifacient to induce a miscarriage and in the 1960s as a psychotropic drug.

So use Cardomom as an alternative, it has a similar taste and it smells yummy.

Carob Peanut Butter Cups

• 1               16 oz Bag of Carob

• 20            Baking Cups, 2.5 inch each

• 6 - 8 oz   Naturally Creamy Peanut Butter

Directions:

1. Heat up a skillet of boiling water, being careful so as not to cause the skillet to overflow when addding the pyrex bowl.

2. Add carob chips to the pyrex bowl, and stirring until the carob is completely melted.

3. Once the carob is melted, remove from heat. Be sure to turn off the heat. Add 6 to 8 ounces of naturally creamy peanut butter (check the label for Canola oil or other additives).

4. Pour carob peanut mixture into baking cups (about 1/4 inch thick) and place in freezer.

Create your favorite "sweet" indulgence.  Add coconut and almonds, add diced or whole pecans, add peanuts, brazil nuts or what fancies your palate.  After mixing all ingredients place in freezer for approximately two hours.  

Did you know? Carob is a nut, so it is actually good for you - as opposed to chocolate which has caffeine.
