Blog 10!!!!

The most interesting thing that i learned about me and my food was the fact that i am so involved with my food and love eating ooo soo much. I didnt know i enjoyed food soo much until i started doing this blog. It is definitely something very important to me. I also learned that i dont eat right at all. The food i eat on a regular basis isnt very healthy and can be harmful to me in the long run. But for some reason even though i know that it doesnt stop me from eating what i want to eat. The foods i eat prolly also effect other people that eat the same foods. I have learned about where the foods i eat came from and whats inside them and the whole nine yards. For some foods i was interested and for others i was just surprised and didnt really want to know. I guess my relationship with my body isnt as strong as my relationship with my food. Me and MY food have a way stronger bond!
I have learned alot from doing the blog experiment. I think im probably goin to continue writing blogs even after im done with this semester. Im glad i was introduced to the blog world.

Blog 9:
Is my favorite meal healthy? Well i dont really think its healthy. My favorite meal is entrana(skirt Steak), buffalo wings and a grilled cheese sandwich. To me all those foods sound really dangerous. Well not the dangerous, but it isnt no spinach and carrots! Steak can give you heart problems and other health issues because of all the calories it has. Buffalo wings are probably not a real big health hazard but it has its effects. Not only health wise but ur hands are gonna get dirty to the max. I feel like grilled cheese is fine, as long as it isnt overdosed on. Cheese is always good unless ur lactose intolerant. Then u will have a bathroom problem.
I think that touching the food to make them more healthy would practically ruin the originality of the food and downgrade the essence and taste of the food. But there are always ways to make a meal healthier. For example, eating a grilled cheese sandwich with whole wheat bread can be healthier, and not using butter would make the grilled cheese sandwich less unhealthy. i Guess cleaning the meat more and adding less ingredients can take of a percentage of unhealthiness. There are always ways to make a meal healthier, you just need to find the way.
I just wanted to add in that i went rock climbing this past sunday and my hands are all sore! typing this isnt really making me feel any better!

The commentary that i found for entrana skirt steak that is a part of my favorite meal was that its very good when made to perfection. It is a more cheaper and thinner steak. People said it was a cheap eat. Others said it is decent. "One of the least expensive cuts of meat used in an asado, entrana is what many know as the skirt steak. The cuts are exactly the same. The meat is rich in flavor and extremely juicy, but can be at times be rather chewy and tough."(www.asadoargentina.com) Grilled cheese commentary was said a regular meal which any person will like. Not much commentary on grilled cheese sandwiches. Buffalo wings was said to be dirty but great tasting meal. You can get your hands dirty eating them but it all worth it because of its tangy spicy overwhelming taste."The Buffalo chicken wing turns 40 years old this weekend. Reporter Eileen Buckley finds folks in Buffalo are still plenty proud of the bar snack that put the city in New York on the road map of American cuisine."(Weekend Edition Sunday, September 5, 2004) . A health issue for my meal is mad cow disease for the entrana. Beef isnt a very healthy meal to eat. It can also make you have heart problems. You are killing animals in order to eat entrana. It can also cause cancer and etc. Grilled cheese is not really a big deal unless you eat it everyday. Other than that it is a healthy meal. Buffalo wings can make your colestoral high. Well even after i read all of this i still love my meal. SOO sOO good!!!
