12. And I'm not so sure that today's food is all that healthy anymore!

Between caged animal farms and the manipulated feed they get plus hormones and antibiotics, then corporate farming and their pesticides, fungicides, the state of our water, depleted soil, genetic engineering and who knows what else -

- I have a 99 year old great-grandmother that says it best:

"Food just doesn't taste as good as it used to."

And I don't see how it could possibly have the nutrient value it used to.

Unless, of course, you're lucky enough to be able to buy from a local, organic farmer or rancher.

And even then the feed, seed, soil and water are still a factor.

Sigh..............
