Is that cute? I bet that's how I picture marketers, when they're sitting around and they're like, this is what we're gonna tell the public. This is gonna make them happy. We'll put a picture of like this on there, put a green leaf on it and everybody I think it's natural and really good. Yeah, go team. That's how I that's where I think.

I'm not really sure why food is so complicated that we run out of room to list things and then we just have the FDA saying, alright, you don't really have to list it but just listed if it's this data, the other so you go into a restaurant, you're on a cleanse or you want to eat healthier care. So you ordered grilled salmon and the vegetables because the grilled salmon is great for omega threes. That's what they've told you. The vegetables are awesome, because that's what Alicia told you. Awesome. Okay.

And it's a low carb option, or you get that grilled chicken Caesar salad because it's a salad right? You go to Olive Garden you get that all you can eat salad because it's all you can eat salad. How can that be wrong? And it's a clean protein because it's grilled chicken, or you get a side of veggies. I did that once I went into a diner and I was on one of my cleanses and I said, I'm gonna stick to my cleanse. I'll have a side of vegetables.

Never made that mistake again. And then you know, of course you have to say without butter because they come out with butter on them. And I'm getting that thinking it's this beautiful bowl of steamed vegetables that I'm ordering and it's got lots of antioxidants, and sitting in a steam table for three hours. Especially if you work in a hospital. Oh, really? Yeah.

Oh, yep. Did that one too. bad one. Grilled food is actually cooked with oils. It's not grill those grill marks is a clever machine. They run it through that like puts those real marks on there.

He's no grill Burger King doesn't have to do that. That's what they don't flame broiled. Doesn't it smell? Don't you love the smell of Burger King? I do I go by and I'm like, No, that's smells delicious. I love those chemicals.

Very common. Salmon isn't sustainable like you told sustainable super high in omega threes it's way more complicated than that. The salad is often unfortunately especially all of garden is horrible with that. That's actually one of the reasons I stopped eating there because they just round this out and addressing like my salads in that much dressing. So difficult getting on the side, and they're often made. Unfortunately those dressings are made with GMO oils like canola or some other it's not like you're getting this fresh olive oil from Italy that they're using.

The vegetables have traveled way too far to boil today. Actually, when I bought them out, they brought out pink cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, and it wasn't corn, peas or something. And it just there was no lifeforce in those things. It was the most disgusting thing I've ever eaten and I couldn't put salt on it because I was on a cleanse so I put some pepper on it but God knows horrible. Never ordered vegetables again as a side. So I have worked in the food industry, all kinds of it.

Here are some little secrets for you. I'm sorry, diversity levels. Grilled foods, especially in a fast paced restaurant require a lot of oil. So you get grilled chicken thick and it's healthier. Now it's got a lot of oil on it. If you look in it, you can actually look on Korra they'll tell you there was one that the one of the questions was do chefs use non stick pans Of course they don't because they want the oil that they're going to use because it needs a good sear and all this other fun.

Stuff so unfortunately they are made with a lot of oil. foods are typically topped with salt and butter before being shoved under our boiler to heat them. That's the sad reality of it. That's what makes it taste good. That's what makes cheese not really fast. Stick it under a boiler and poof, your food's really piping hot.

So that's an example of a dish that you think is good. Tasty, not good for you, but good and tasty. Eggplant, parm. It's a few slices. This is the image you have in your head a few slices of eggplant, you got some sauce, you got some cheese on it. The sad reality is those eggplant slices are bought in a huge warehouse.

I don't know if they have them here. But there are. It's called restaurant depot in New York, and it's just this huge warehouse where all these restaurants go in and they can buy all this food premade nobody's making it and I'm Sitting there branding your eggplant. They're buying it in the freezer this huge box of pre made eggplant. Then they're getting this commercial thing of sauce. That's disgusting.

That's on the shelf and then they pull it all together and somehow throw it on a pan, put it under a boiler and poof, you have a clamp farm made fresh from scratch. They don't make that claim on the restaurant menu, which unfortunately, sometimes they do. You have to get comfortable asking questions in the restaurant. Again, it's your body, it's your right to know what in the hell you are eating. If you are questioning what something is on a menu, ask the server, ask nicely so that they don't spit in your food or do something weird to it. Because you don't want that to happen, but you have a right to know.

And if you're not comfortable doing that, then just stop eating. Unfortunately, that's the sad reality of the world. I believe that humans are mostly compassionate. I do. I believe that we want all these good things. However, there are those marketers, you know that first slide I showed you them pounding astounding.

Yeah, because they don't want you to know the truth and that's why they make all kinds of clever and will scan lines make us feel better about what we're eating. Here's a list of some of those clever marketing scams. cage free free range, animal welfare, pasture raised farm fresh blah, blah, blah, nitrate hormone and antibiotic free chickens and eggs humane certified organic. As a side note, anytime you see organic has nothing to do with the welfare of the being that you are eating or the eggs or whatever it is. It only has to do with the kind of food that they ate and that they were not sprayed with pesticides.
