“But in our best interest, We have to value our health above all these other things, and make eating healthy a priority in terms of how we spend the resources we have. Makes no sense to be fronting like a rich person on the outside ,but in reality, in poor health on the inside, right? But it’s easy for any of us to make excuses without looking at at a budget, so that’s where budgeting comes in handy.”

Comments Off on Meatless Mouthful–Morrissey Walked Out On Meat Eating Date
“As his food order arrives I stare intently at what appears to be a sloppy dish of dog food on his plate. … I therefore automatically stand up and walk out of the restaurant. Suddenly you come to a certain situation and you are unable to live with it, and the only protest you can make on behalf of the butchered animal is to depart the scene.”
—Morrissey, from his latest autobiography about his life, music and love for animals. He and his date eventually reunited and reportedly stayed together for at least two years so the singer probably gained plenty of experience teaching the virtues of animal rights and plant-based eating.

Comments Off on Dilbert’s Scott Adams Latest Advice For Success Includes Good Nutrition
Scott Adams, the creator behind the popular comic strip Dilbert, has written a book about his success, How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big.
Adams gives a few bits of advice for making it, but he doesn’t necessarily recommend you follow it, as Lesson#5 states: Don’t take career advice from a cartoonist. (or health advice or finance advice for that matter).
Good health is a must for any success and Adams lists this as one of the keys to getting what you want in life.
Staying Fit is Lesson #3, and he also advises to, “learn as much as you can about what food choices are better for you…People who know the most about nutrition almost always eat better.”
