Shopping disappointments
Yes, so all the nutrition pages say Stay away from processed foods, but here in winter's last blast (snow that stuck for half a day yesterday) I wanted sossidges dammit, so I went to the super and bought two Happy Pigs sausages. Pork and spices, they said, not Italian or Mexican but plain pig and greenery. And either an excess of pepper or some kind of chili because my mouth burned with it so badly I had to break out the kefir. I hate to waste food but one was all I could manage and the rest went in the green bin. I will never understand this fashion for food that hurts, but these days try to avoid the sri racha flavour, just try.
And while I was there I got some more walnuts, reaching around the maskless middle-aged guy who was standing in front of the shelf in rapt contemplation of the riches on display. I should have contemplated myself, because they'd moved the containers around and what I got was in fact pecans. I've nothing against pecans except their calorie count, which isn't that much worse than walnuts as it turns out. But they don't go as well with apples and cheese as walnuts do.
