It's all the added salt and sugar that catches my attention. Then, like the weirdo that I am, I look at their face and body to see if it looks like they're ok, or if they look old for their age. By nature I'm a worrier and a dipshit

You are on to something there. I recently went whole foods plant-based and have cut drastically back on my sodium. The increase in energy and general sharpness was immediate.

I am more against processed foods than anything else. That shit will send you to an early grave and keep you sick on your journey.

Me too. My kids hate mummy's new desert - chia pudding.

For me chia seeds are like medicine. Just chug that shit down and ignore what it tastes like.

I eat them plain by the teaspoon, they're tasteless to me. Also really good mixed into peanut butter with crushed nuts, pumpkin seeds, coconut and a drizzle of honey. It's the new Tim Tam!

I tried Tim Tams a little while back. Sorry I was not too impressed. Lychee on the other hand...heaven.

Tim Tams hit the spot for me in terms of sugar heaven. I want a lychee farm.

I live part-time in Asia and sometimes my wife just hands me a bowl of lychee with the outer skins peeled off and the fruit peeled off of the pit. It feels like love.
