All right! Enough cookies, cola, and chips! It seems that
junk food (垃圾食物) is all that the children want to eat these
days. Television controls their tastes. The kids see well-known per-
sonalities eating potato chips, candy and other processed (处理过
的 ) food, and they want to be like their heroes. How do they do it?
They eat the same food. I wish there were more characters like old
Popeye, the sailor, who ate spinach (菠菜) and not French fries.
Now I expect my children to eat healthy food because I like
brown rice, beans, and fresh vegetables. I'm glad to cook traditional
meals of meat and potatoes for them. I really can't be too upset with
the kids because most adults aren't careful about what they eat.
The other night, my wife and I went to a party where there
was plenty to drink but very little for us to eat. They served hot
dogs and hamburgers. I can't eat hot dogs, with all those
preservatives (防腐剂) ,and hamburgers are filled with chemicals
so that they look better. Besides the meat, they had sugar-filled
cookies and cake, and of course, chips.
I don't want the world to change because of me, but I think
people should realize that there are choices to eating meat. They
always tell me that I probably don't get my essential (必要的)
proteins (蛋白质). I feel better than ever and I'm sure that it's
because I'm a vegetarian (素食者) .I would really like to see more
television advertisements which show the benefits of good, healthy,
natural food.
