WHICH IS A GOOD CHOICE???


Here are your choices:

             1.  Chicken Enchiladas
             2.  Hamburger and French Fries
             3.  Eggs and Bacon
             4.  Grilled Salmon and a Salad
             5.  Cookies and Milk
             6.  Pizza
 
They all look delicious, but which of these meals is a good choice?  Which would you choose to be the healthiest choice?  Take a guess and then read on. 
 
This slide is from a class I taught several years ago.  I don't think the answer has changed.  Beware though, this is a trick question.  When answering this question, we need to focus on the main concept.  Do any of these meals classify as God's food or use God's ingredients?  What are God's foods and ingredients anyway?  In today's world of marketing and profits, companies and the media have twisted and distorted the truth about food, health and diet so that it is hard to know the answers to these questions.
 
Man has become very good at 'remaking' God's foods; removing most of the nourishment through extensive processing and then add man-made synthetic chemicals back into the foods.  Man-made foods are also loaded with cheap sugars, salt and fats.  The widespread use of these ingredients has great power over us.
 
Now, which is your choice?  Have you changed your mind or do you still think your first answer is best.  Here is my answer to the question. 

I am teaching a series of 10 classes at Jon's school and will be sharing with you what we do.  This is one of their at-home challenges to ask their family members about this week.
