Hello good people of the forum.
Due to severe isolation, I’m mostly responding to what I see on TV. It’s media. It doesn’t give a wide picture but it gives me a good excuse to rant; tongue in cheek of course.

Hi Steve , I wrote a message back but it wouldn’t send , this is my 2nd attempt. I loved your blog it was really interesting, I have to admit I’m glad that I am now vegetarian. I’m no longer being hypocritical in eating the poor animals . I actually enjoy my food too . I’ve learned so many new recipes and although I’m not always able to make them myself Lee is making some lovely meals . The rest of the family are still meat eaters but often enjoy vegetarian foods.

I hope that my message doesnt offend others I have no problem with anyone else eating meat . I just felt hypocritical because I know deep down I couldn’t kill an animal for food . Take care everyone and stay safe . Michelle and Frazer xx
Those all you can eat etc american programmes are sick. I dont watch them anymore…

There are alternatives in the States, there is a chain called Sweet Tomatoes a relief from fried food,you can order a Cobb salad most places and obviously a Waldorf salad in the Waldorf with or without walnuts there are some amazing restaurants in the States it isn’t all processed and fried except in diners,drive ins and dives, which you would expect!

Thanks Maude.
It’s a shame there is less exposure for the good guys. But junk TV glorifies junk food to fuel stereotyping.
Best wishes.
Steve it’s time you turned the tv off and read a book.
I watch the news and curse and swear at some opinions voiced. My next door neighbour asked me if I’d had a bad day yesterday as she missed her morning giggle. I open my lounge door every morning as soon as I get up and she likes sitting outside listening to me give my opinions apparently, it starts her day off well. Luckily she agrees with my opinion of certain politicians, especially a well known one over the pond.
The programmes you’re watching will definitely not feature in my weekly lineup, I’ve put weight on since I’ve been on Gabapentin but watching people overeat turns my stomach.
I hope for your sake they find an aerosol which will kill this virus off Steve as you clearly need your cruise.

Other than that I watch some dramas which I usually record and Netflix and Amazon.

Hello Cath.
That’s sound advice. I try not to watch too much TV but being a night owl, I tend to drift around the food channels in the late hours of darkness if only to be sniffy about the type of food I wouldn’t eat. I need to get out more…Oh, hang on.
Steve
