    Support your local butcher, fishmonger and buy British fruit & veg in season or grow your own, then cook your own "fast Food". Mix this with a Mediterranean style diet and still have the ribeye, roast pork with crackling etc, yorkshire pud's and roast potato, British cheese occasionally, you only live once.......enjoy it

    Slowly here in Oz the number of greengrocers springing up is quite amazing. We had plenty in the 80's then they sort of vanished. Suddenly they are back with a vengance. Slowly i think people are begining to realise the produce they sell is a lot fresher than at the supermarket. Having worked for Safeways and seen how it is done I would never buy from anywhere except a greengrocer. Grow about half of my own veg and fruit each year. 3 apple trees, 1 pear, 1 plum, nectarine and peach, 2 manderin,2 orange and 1 lemon tree. Have 25 square meters of veg patch.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    I know this elderly chap when we dine out always starts with dessert/pudding first, as when he wasn't a widower he wasn't allowed one, as it would apparently it would make him fat (he's as thin as a rake) after pudding he has his main course, occasionally followed by soup. Now he does it that way in case he's full up before he gets to the pudding which he really enjoys, makes sense to me, I can live without soup

    why eat healthy!!! do the eskimo worry about eating fat{blubber}? country people their main diet was vegetable soups{sometimes the odd rabbit} the lifespan was about 35 in the 15/1600? remember sugar pure white and deadly that was the logo years ago then said it was safe? I think it is down to the individual what and how he lives churchill never had a Cuban cigar out of his face 90 odd when he fell off the perch. we don't know what is going in your food and its best we don't? i think we have all drank to much smoked to much but we had the bonus of good fresh air.just my view jp

    I've just recently tried some of this so called junk food. I must confess I quite enjoyed most of it. At 81 years of age I say if you enjoy it then eat it. Why worry? You won't die before before time anyway. Incidentally I also drink far more alcohol than is supposed to good for me. You've only got one life. Stop worrying and enjoy it.

    perhaps Ivan, the reason this 'elderly' chap begins his meal with dessert is to relish the enjoyment of his favoured dish just in case he doesn't quite make it to the soup course.
