We all live busy lives with little or no time to find the right food or eat the most nutritious meals. When trying to find finely cooked food we may eat out at restaurants where we may not know how the meal was prepared and with what ingredients. Or worse we go to fast food places in an attempt to quickly feed our hunger. Then we attempt at buying our meal supplies & food at grocery stores to make the food ourselves in an attempt to know what we are eating but then we have to go through the process of actually reading the labels of each product to know what is actually in the processed foods we are trying to buy such as cans and packaged meals etc. The challenge is that at times when we go grocery shopping, we are either hungry, tired, sleepy, with no time to read any labels, or distracted by our kids or a combination of these. So we just pile whatever is visually appealing or whatever our stomach tells us is tasty based on either past choice or a recommendation from someone. Keep in mind that whatever is considered ‘tasty’ may not be healthy for us but our conditioning is that the instant gratification satisfaction makes it okay to eat something which may not be healthy for us.
