Fun With Food Labels

Posted on by

I was at TEH EVIL STORE today and saw the following on the label of a bottle of honey:

Og trans-fats!!!!

[sarcastic] That is just soooooo good to know! I mean, like, I hate it when my honey is all fatty and stuff? And it is, like, so good to know that I’m not going to get heart disease from these bee secretions![/sarcastic]

OK… honey is all sugar — why would anyone worry about trans-fats in their flipping honey?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

It’s been said that the best food is the stuff that doesn’t have labels on it promoting its nutritional value… like the fruits and vegetables in the produce section?

One Week

Posted on by

(Yes, I am ripping this entry idea off from Dreama. She’ll get over it.)

T-minus one week (and slightly less in hours and minutes) until the Blogathon starts at 7:00 am MDT! I’m blogging for Lutheran World Relief and I’d appreciate if all y’all could do the following:

  • Come visit me. 🙂 Yeah, my Blogathon site is separate from this domain (mostly because people found this blog last year as a result of the Blogathon blog) and I’d love if y’all would come and see what I have to say. I’ll probably put a redirect up on this site so that you’re forced to come to the site (yes… I’m evil that way) but I’d love to have you surf on over anyway. I’ll be updating every half hour for 24 hours and could use some cheerleaders. 🙂
  • Sponsor me!!!!!!!! I currently have $50 raised and I’m trying to at least hit my total from last year of $310. I’m blogging for a super cool organization that does amazing work all over the world in the areas of disaster relief, advocacy for economic fair trade, AIDS education, and hunger relief. There are also *lovely* sponsoring incentives.
  • Tell all the world about my blogging campaign! Link my blogathon site on your blog (that’s http://blogathon.peacefulwaters.org, not grace-filled.net) and let anyone who is remotely interesting (and also interested) know about it!!!!!

OK… enough pimping of my cause. There will be a lovely signature at the bottom of all posts for the next week so you’ll be reminded of it. 🙂
