    Those of us who don’t eat meat have known this for a while. For those who like butter and cheese, but don’t want to deal with the fat, sprinkle nutritional yeast on snacks/popcorn.

    Everything in moderation still seems appropriate.

    I have been saying this all along, there is no such thing as bad food, unfortunately a LOT of stuff that is passed off as food nowadays is not food, it is chemicals.

    I would not eat ‘oleo,’ that’s what my grandparents called margarine, when I was a kid because it smelled like our Naugahyde couch to me and I knew that could not be fit to eat!

    Turns out I was right, butter was the best because it was least adulterated and I think that goes for all foods.

        Yea, I wonder too. I don’t know what the stuff smells like now because I haven’t really smelled it in 50 years but it really smelled bad back then, it smelled like some kind of plastic, I could not eat it.

          Makes me wonder if it has something to do with so many having cholesterol problems that grew up eating that garbage. It could have switched something on or off in our bodies. Who knows?

    As though I needed science…we’ve been eating these items for thousands of years.
