My Mom and the Dorito Effect-Part 2-Grill Marks and Consistent Taste

 

My Mom and the Dorito Effect, Part 2

Grill Marks and Consistent Taste

    With the backdrop of my Mom's observations on canned tomato soup forty something years ago the decades have seen a great deal of prepared and fast food "taste consistency" that can boggle the mind and bring into question the "ingredients list."

Hamburgers at your favorite chain, say McD's for instance, look, taste and smell the same whether you buy them in New Jersey, Florida, California, Washington state or anywhere in between. This is quite different than your backyard burgers that tend to vary depending on a number of factors including who is flipping the burgers on your grill.

What happens at the chains that burgers don't vary in taste, juiciness, grill marks, flakiness, smell or even how well done they are? At least 15 years ago information started appearing in the media that those "grill marks" on hamburgers and chicken at many fast food chains are painted or branded on using a combination of sugar, fats, oils, smoke flavoring and other chemicals. Much of the "grilled chicken" is actually cooked with a burst of hot air and never even touches a grill or flat top. Apparently consistent taste and appearance ("at least I know what I'm getting") ranks higher than great taste and nutrition to many and the prepared and fast food industries rely heavily on this preference.

Thank you to my patients who took the time out of their busy days to nominate me for this honor. It is very much appreciated!

Chiropractic care helps detect disease

Wow! What a terrific feeling! A patient came in earlier this week to thank me "for saving" her life. Did I read her blood work better than her other doctors? No. Did I order some elaborate test that no one else had thought of? No. I did what all well-trained Chiropractors do. I listened to my patient speak. I looked at and watched my patient move. I felt my patient's spine and muscles and understood that that simple bump that would not go away in her the neck was a problem. It turned out to be an enlarged lymph node as the result of Stage 4 ovarian cancer. Chances looked dim but my patient's spirit was strong and combining some natural therapy with traditional cancer care my patient is one year past chemo, cancer free and looks better than ever and looks forward to her future! The lesson here? Listen to the body. Yours as a patient and theirs as the doctor. Understand what normal is and don't wait for pain or other symptoms to drag you into the doctor's office. When your function is down it is time to find out why and not wait for the symptoms to show. Symptoms are often the last thing to show and the first thing to go away. Who should go to a Chiropractor for an adjustment? Let's start with everyone that has a spine. Your spine, just like the teeth in your mouth, needs care whether there are symptoms or not.
