Did anyone watch Wife Swap tonight?

Ok that was just plain disgusting...

That one family that eats raw meat and lets their house go to pot because "germs are good." is just plain whacked.

Now I agree with them up to a point the chemicals and stuff in the food but come on, raw meat?!! Is it really that good for you?

I mean I didn't even know what to think.

Not trying to start a flame war but I really think that family was really extreme in it's position.

1. Just about over here on the left coast............

Where in the world did the Iowa folks come up with some of that crap??? Most of it I've never heard of before.

I cooked myself some chicken for dinner tonight...before the show aired, thank goodness!

:hi:

3. I"ve never heard of this kind of diet

at least for humans. I have however, read a book about giving raw foods to pets. That I can see as logical. As for me, all I could keep thinking about was that this family must be the kind hosts of a plethora of tapeworms and other parasites.

I have eaten sushi before and that's about as raw as I get. :hi: back

5. Nobody in the country brushes their teeth with butter, for pete's sake!

How are the boy and girl going to find a mate or are they just going to hang out with their parents the rest of their lives???

:shrug:

2. yeah, I saw it

I agree they were a bit extreme. Actually, a lot extreme. I guess if you're growing your own meat, eat it raw if you want, but.... no thanks.

4. That was W-I-L-D!!!

I have known some strange rangers in my lifetime, I mean I have lived in MT, NV, AR and MS!! That family was far and away the most bizarre I have ever even heard of! They were eating raw rotten meat and brushing their teeth with butter???? Holymoley. And that teen boy, very seriously afraid for him. The father wasn't all that stable either.

Just

:scared:

6. What was that stuff in the jar that the father

was eating?

I think it was four-month-old raw meat. Did he call it High Meat? Did you catch that?

Those kids have no formal education. Their mother expects them to learn from the things around them. And the son is whacked.

I would expect social services to step in.

[girl gone mad]

7. I'm watching it on tivo now.

Wow. This is just crazy.

I do think people overdo it in our society with the anti-bacterial soaps and industrial strength cleaners, but they are way out there not washing anything and eating only raw food.
