Monday, June 19th, 2006

When I hear or see super food, I think of pizza, juicy burgers on steamed buns, triple-dip, psycho rich chocolate mousse tortes, hearty stews and homemade spaghetti sauces packed with al dente veggies and meats. Super food to me is food that you indulge in when you have the munchies or food that in a way gives you the munchies…as you cannot stop eating it once you start.

Betty Crocker and her heritage

Sunday, June 18th, 2006

A well known person, Betty Crocker is an icon that many of us have grown up with through the years. Betty Crocker could be considered a representative of the cookbooks and cake mixes. Of course, this is not all about Betty Crocker! The name Betty Crocker has historical significance as well. The name “Betty Crocker� was developed to market products to homemakers, and created from combining the last name of a retired company executive, William Crocker, and a pleasant, comfortable woman name, Betty. From what an online source says, General Mills was effectively overwhelmed with requests for recipes and baking suggestions, and to make the responses more personal, the company responded with letters using the signature of a secretary who before this has won an office contest.

Affordable Health Insurance is Available!

Sunday, June 18th, 2006

When we think of health insurance, many of us don’t think we’ll ever need it or, in other words, we are hopeful that we will never need it. It’s the “won’t happen to me” that we all like to believe.

However, these things can happen, and when they do, it will probably be out of nowhere.

One of the popular healthy fast food items is the Chick-n-Strips Salad at Chick-Fil-A. You can choose from other healthy fast food such as salads with fat free dressing and no cheese.

Is There Such A Thing As Healthy Weight Loss?

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

With the abundance of ads and infomercials, we are consistently exposed to the miracle diet pill. Most of these are not even close to forms of healthy weight loss. In fact many of them border on dangerous.
