If its in a box and has a corporate label on it, there's a good chance you shouldn't be buying - or consuming - it.

My mother raised me on boxed food (hence my GFY posts - make the connection!)

I have never once fed my children anything that came out of a box or a bag with a corporate label on it. Christie, Kraft, Monsanto - all the same. Same with personal hygeine products.

My kids are adults now so I don't know what they buy, but I DO know this...

They're fine. I'm nuts. I'll attribute that to growing up on Swanson TV Dinners, Schnieder's Bologna, Shopsy's Hot Dogs, Kraft Dinner and massive amounts of glorious Coca-Cola.

Put me in the ground today and I'll look just as good 100 years from now. I am preserved and pickled because convenience foods defined the late 1960s through the 1970s. I'm a walking chemical minefield.

And that does not always work out well.
