Fast foods was Re: Cholesterol

[Guest guest]

Wow, I guess I don¹t realize how lucky I am. I cant¹ even force myself to

eat a bean burrito from taco bell, no matter how hungry usually.......

There is just so much yuck I can taste in everything in a fast food place.

Even the lettuce, sadly......

I never thought of this as a blessing though really. I see now how the fact

that I only WANT the good stuff should not be taken lightly and I should not

be dismayed....
