I read the book two months ago, found the overall topic interesting, and several of the tips a good way to be more conscious about how to eat. Knowing that packaging is developed to make us eat more, I’ve now ordered small size beverages instead of thinking I’m getting more value with a taller cup. And I find myself seeing the serving sizes in a more rational way.

But no way can I follow some of the other options like limiting choices, not shopping for food every week/day, and not to think about food so much. Sheesh. Talk about a boring existence!

As for the postal service mess, I remember how the central post office would send us a bill for P7000 or more for books we’d receive from the US. These were clearly marked not for sale, and no taxes to be levied. So we’d have to contact the book supplier and tell them to send it via FEDEX, which they weren’t willing to do since it cost them a heck load more. Corruption at every angle.

“Annoyed, I told the driver to ask them if they thought Superman or Catwoman would give away their identity to the neighborhood customs officerâ€¦”
Reads like a script. Superman, Catwoman, Marketman.

Awareness mitigates the unpleasant bulges of mindless eating!

I saw this book at the bookstore and didn’t even have to think twice about NOT buying it. Why on earth would I want to kill the soul of my very passion which is food??!! I might as well pull the plug on my blog if that were true.
