Healthy Fast Food Lunches
Fast food is notoriously bad for you, and that shoddy reputation definitely is rightfully earned. Many fast food lunches can load you up with over 1,000 calories and several times your daily recommended intake of salt, fats, and sugars. Don't believe it? If you want to see how bad a fast food diet can be for you, just watch Supersize Me.

No! It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken —Camel Meat—Fit For A Sultan’s Feast
Long treasured in Middle-Eastern countries as a delicacy, camel meat is often the featured culinary highlight for galas, receptions, banquets and serious celebrations. Specialist camel butchers prepare the meat, with the hump as the most prized portion of the animal; similar to the back strap cut on an elk. Contrary to what many people believe, the camel hump is essentially a storehouse of fat; not a water bladder. Described as a cross between lamb and beef, young camel meat in no way tastes like chicken.

Food Fights in Film
In school, food fights are something that every teacher dreads — and it's obvious why. They're messy, and if a fight breaks out, they'll have to call parents to get a new change of clothing for the kids that weren't able to dodge milk. Thankfully, most food fights aren't as crazy as the ones you see in movies, and they're usually rather rare.

My Personal Journey Through Diet
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that a diet really helps you in the long run. Like the catchphrase says, "you are what you eat." My journey began when I had a health scare a couple of months ago. I was diagnosed with a 26 cm tumor in my abdomen, almost obliterating my health. The signs were there, and the abnormalities were beginning to take place back in June of 2016. The tumor was taken out April 2017. I had lost 20lbs, weighing in at 85 lbs. Luckily, it wasn't cancer, but I had to lose an ovary due to the surgery. That prompted me to rethink my diet and my lifestyle choices. What we do to our bodies will have a great effect in our old age.
