That and stuff like Asda's "buy a pack of findus crispy pancakes and get chips, frozen non-dairy fat dessert free!" type stuff. You just can't beat the price on that kind of stuff when going for cooked-from-scratch, wholesome foods. *sigh*TOTKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02237887292728041504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131167402709600353.post-58756799857400527982010-08-11T07:55:18.584+01:002010-08-11T07:55:18.584+01:00Thanks for introducing me to Alisons blog, what a ...Thanks for introducing me to Alisons blog, what a great post indeed! I was just having a little twinge of guilt after what I ate yesterday but reading that post and your comments has just reminded me to get a grip! xLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11724246164610904802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131167402709600353.post-38535597593591849102010-08-10T20:09:08.535+01:002010-08-10T20:09:08.535+01:00Haha, I remember those happy days of bike-commutin...Haha, I remember those happy days of bike-commuting when it rained! There's no really pleasant way of doing it - waterproofs and you sweat from the inside, no waterproofs, well.. The overshoes sound good though. I think feet are most important :)<br /><br />And thanks for the shout out! :) I agree that as a society, our attitude to food is somewhat whacked. I think the panic about obesity has had the unfortunate consequence of making people feel guilty for ever enjoying "nutritionally unsound" foods, even in moderation. I mean let's face it, the reason people get overweight from eating too much cake is because cake is damn good - there's no need to demonize it! :D<br /><br />If we need to stop rewarding ourselves with food, then we need to stop beating ourselves over the head with it too. There has to be some neutral ground out there somewhere. Ground with cake on it.. !Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18411625461380393973noreply@blogger.com
