49 Worst Foods

Just in Case you are curious,
I found this list of the 49 Worst Foods
for people to eat.
Ya, I know,
most of these I already know,
but it is nice to have the list
in the back of my mind as I go
to reach for a candy bar while
I wait in line at the grocery store-

Did I confess yet that I used
to eat a Babe Ruth a day??
Not a mini one either baby!!

that are almost totally lacking in essential nutrients,
vitamins, and minerals.
