I cannot believe that someone made a comment about ‘puritanical preaching’. Seriously. We are inundated everyday with false advertising about foods that are not even real foods. We have to put up with this every day in our faces yet when someone actually says how crap it really is (thanks Zoe), people get annoyed.

You can never eat too healthy and there are alot more people who are obese, overweight and unhealthy than there are eating ‘too healthy’.

I wish it was the opposite.

Keep up the great posts Zoe.

Mary,

I think you missed the whole point. The point is that people think they are eating something healthy when in fact they are not. Big companies like Kellogs play with our emotions and support this idea that calories is what matters.

You don’t need to be on a diet? Just shift they way and what you eat. And sorry, too much healthy eating is bad for you? Please, do you even hear what you are saying. It is like saying breathing too much clean air is bad for you.

I believe in a treat every now and then as well, but I think Zoe is simply trying to dispel the myth out there that less calories is better and educating people about what is in their food so they can make an informed decision. At the end of the day, I might choose to eat a Custard Filled donut from Krispy Creams, but at least I know how much crap is in it.

Keep up the good work Zoe and thank you for trying to get us back to what nature intended.

Oh please. All this obsessive puritanical preaching about what we eat and what it does to you. As long as you remember that most things are fine in moderation, a little naughty morsel every now and then won’t harm you. I’m on a diet and eat a little of most things which are healthy but allow myself the odd treat, such as a bag of Kellogs Special Mini K Breaks. It’s better than a donut and lighter on the stomach. I love it and look forward to having it in the evening when I’m reading.

Everything in excess is bad for you, including too much healthy eating!
