Man I hate hearing about this stuff. I was raised on these types of foods and now it's like crack to me. As an adult, I'm having a really tough time giving them up.
I'm sure I just need to learn new habits and have some will power, but sometimes I wish they'd just outlaw or ration unhealthy food too. It's just too damn abundant...
My problem is that I was raised with the food pyramid. Grain as staff of life etc. I look at corn flakes or wonderbread, and my subconscious health barometer reads "all clear." I'll consume these products without thinking about it.
It's really difficult to re-train myself for a more modern understanding of nutrition.
