Just An Average Post

 

Hubris

            I guess I would file this under “what we don’t know” and “what we don’t care about.” I mean we as in the general run of mankind.
            I was thinking again. I’ll try not to scare the horses. Of course, horses don’t read so we’re probably safe.
            I was thinking about manufactured food products, all that stuff on the middle shelves in colorful boxes and bags. I’m sure everyone with a brain cell or two knows that’s where pitfalls gather. But why? What’s wrong with it?
            I say that it’s what’s left out of it that’s wrong with it. We don’t know what’s left out of it, and we again don’t know that we don’t know what’s left out of it because we don’t know what’s in the real stuff.
            Oh, I know, natural foods have been studied and everything they could find has been measured and recorded. I posit that it has been a crude analysis. We don’t know what we are looking for.
            Some old-timers used to talk about a mysterious “life force” in living things. Maybe they were correct. Maybe there is something alive in the plants and animals that comprise plain normal food that is missing in manufactured products? They can’t put it in, even if we think they might have honestly wanted to, because they don’t know what it is or how to get it, or how to put in.
            Thanks to our most glamorous onboard metabolism which will make it all work somehow if it possibly can, these manifestations of ad campaigns won’t kill you quickly. But God is a much better cook.
