Food Log for Friday, March 28th
What I Ate:
*1 bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios and skim milk
*half a turkey sandwich on wheat bread, corn, carrot sticks, French fries, strawberries, water
*chicken fettuccini alfredo and bread with olive oil from Spageddies, water
*kit-kat bar
*iced vanilla mocha
*McDonald’s French fries and McFlurry
So, I ate a couple healthy meals and pretty much ruined a good day of eating with unhealthy late night snacks. I probably ate some food that was genetically modified- I ate corn for lunch and I also ate strawberries that were pretty big, so they were likely to have been GMO. Even the Honey Nut Cheerio cereal probably contained GMO products (it contains modified corn starch). It’s really pretty hard to tell exactly what you are eating or where it came from when you’re eating dining hall food all the time, and the same goes for when you go out to a restaurant. I’m not sure what the farthest distance a food had to travel to get to me, but the strawberries probably came from some place warm since I think they are out of season. The closest thing was probably the corn, because we all know that comes from Indiana! Yes, I did unfortunately eat fast food, which is not a usual habit, but sometimes it just sounds really good late at night! It’s kind of disturbing to think that you have absolutely no idea where the food you’re eating came from, what is in it and how it was made, when you are eating fast food. I also ate “slow food” on Friday night, at an Italian restaurant called Spageddies. I have a lot more faith in the quality of this food than fast food, but you still don’t know if the food contains GMOs or whatnot.
