A big *AMEN* to that!! When I lived in Britain in the 60s I got farm
fresh, straight
from the cow milk, heavy raw cream, real butter, and straight from the chicken
eggs delivered to the door every morning Mon-Fri. I bought meat at the butcher
shop and fresh vegetables from the produce market or from a little man who grew
them and sold them in the neighborhood. Almost nothing was pre-packaged or
had preservatives in it and it all tasted wonderful - especially the
bread with fresh
salted butter on it!! The cheeses were magnificent!! No pasturizing
or preservatives
their either. Is it any wonder that more Americans suffer from hypertension (me
included) than any other country in the world? In this country if you want food
that tastes good, you have to smother it in seasoning because without that,
everything tastes like warm, wet cardboard.
Cheers!!
