Food glorious food

As my cousin seems so interested in what I eat and is under the impression that ALL I eat is processed crap, i'm going to run down all the things I've eaten today...

Breakfast

1 bowl of branflakes with a splash of milk
1 small glass of juice

Midmorning

1 cox apple (small)

Lunch

1 bowl of spicy carrot soup, which I made myself and contained no added preservatives or indeed anything on the processed list.
1 fromage frais (strawberry)

Afternoon snack

1 cox apple (small)

Dinner

Braised lamb shank, with braised carrots, broccoli and mashed potato (all homemade) from a recipe by John Burton Race
1 creme egg ( I know he will appove of this)

So, basically, I think you'll all agree that I have had my five portions of fruit and veg today, I may even have some grapes later for a treat. It's also fairly balanced.

As for my migraine, a lad I work with has also had one this week, in fact he was sick at work. So we're blaming the low pressure and or the air conditioning.

In other news, the Brits is on tonight so I will be doing my best to avoid it, especially as it's a good TV night, we've got Masterchef with good old John and Greg stuffing their faces with as much food as will fit on a spoon. Grand Designs, so I can see how the other half lives and what a multi million pound house looks like! And good old Gordon Ramsey swearing at the Americans. GREAT!

Check the branflakes for ingredients. If they have more than five or include corn syrup it's poison.

Juice - processed. And from fruit grown with pesticides. Same for the apples.

Lamb, fed with a diet of corn and other stuff ladened with hormones and antibiotics.

Carrot soup full of veg with pesticides.

Fromage Frais - not sure but it doesn't sound good.

Creme egg - only good food of the day.

So unless everything is organic, your diet is full of pesticides and hormones and antibiotics. No wonder you get headaches.

I always thought British lamb was reared on grass, i saw hundreds out on the hills on the train back from the airport. Perhaps American lamb is fed crap because not being a sheep rearing country they don't know how to rear them naturally like wot we do??
I never get headaches, if i did I would think it was a brain tumour and I ear some crap
