[If you think a "real man" eats this, you're a "real idiot."]Sorry, I had to disappear for a while. I caught a stomach parasite two weeks ago and have been slowly trying to regain my strength. All is well now, but for about a week, my toilet and I became close friends.
Anyway, on to the point of this post. I am constantly being ridiculed at work for how healthy I eat. Does it hurt my feeling? Not at all. In fact, I take it as a compliment and take pride in my healthy food selections. However, being out sick for a week added fuel to the fire for all the "health experts" at my station. Apparently, I got the parasite from "all that healthy shit you eat..." and the well educated remedy was that I need to start eating "real food," I'm sorry I mean "real MAN food." Well if "real MAN food" is three square meals a day of fried pork chops, green beans with bacon, butter w/ a side of mashed potatoes, washed down w/ Kool-Aid w/ extra sugar added ( for the diabetics), and topped off a generous portion of Bluebell; you can call me Mary. I could really give a fuck.
I didn't have the heart to tell the peons that I had eaten off of my regular routine a few days before and that was likely the cause of my illness. My sister had ordered fajitas for my nephews B-day the weekend before. I felt that I was justified to cheat a little to celebrate the little dude's day. My stomach saw no justice in it a few days later.
In Part 2, I will show you what I consider to be real man food show you how I save money and my life buy shopping for this real man food.

If you would have told them that being off your diet is what got you sick, you'd get more ribbing than you know.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a vegan, I used to get teased in public, but in private they all said they respected it and the will power to do it. I went on a dive trip with some of them, and it was an all "inclusive resort".
Since I hadn't eaten meat for a couple of years at that point, my body couldn't handle it. However they (the resort) didn't know what vegetarian was. After the trip I got an even harder time about being a vegan.
I'm looking forward to part 2. I also wonder if anyone else got sick from them food or if it was just you.
I also agree, most people don't know what real food is, and the fact they're adding extra sugar to the kool-aid for the diabetics, means they don't understand even half of what they think they do.
