SONG - AMERICAN FAST FOOD - "what a stupid way to die"

A BLAST FROM THE PAST

 

Do you remember this song from back in the 80's by Randy Stonehill?

My favorite lines in the song.... 

"You won't have to embalm me
 When my life is through
There's so many preservatives in what I eat
The job's being done right now for you"

AMERICAN FAST FOOD

American fast food
What a stupid way to die
American fast food
Order me the jumbo fries
Oh, oh, it's easy
It's so easy and it's trouble free
It's quick & disposable, just like me
If I don't stop eating
This greasy American fast food

* * * *
Well we're undernourished
but we're overfed
And we're munching on the burger
With the white bread
And we're sucking up the sugar
In a milkshake
Till we slip into depression
With a big headache
And our arteries are crying out
"Give us a break!"

* * * *
American fast food
What a stupid way to die
American fast food
You kiss your old age goodbye
Oh, oh, it's easy
It's so easy and and it's trouble free
It's quick and disposable, just like me
If I don't stop eating
This greasy American fast food
 

* * * *
You won't have to embalm me
 When my life is through
There's so many preservatives in what I eat
The job's being done right now for you

"Can I take your order, please?"
"A cheeseburger, fries, and a big chocolate malted"
It's prefab junk at an exorbitant price
And it's bound to make you nauseous
If you look at it twice
But they're selling you by telling you
It's food that's fun
When it tastes like cardboard
It chews like sponge
'Cause it's really only garbage
On a sesame bun
 

from his album "Equator"

MUFFINS to die for

You don't need to be gluten intolerant for this recipe.  Anyone can eat these because they are seriously....to die for.  Instead of using flour for this recipe, you would use "almond flour" which is actually ground up almonds.  A little pricey for the flour but sooooo worth it.  I love muffins (who doesn't?) and this is by far, probably the best muffin I've tasted.  Extremely moist and very nutritious.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do (and everyone who's tasted them :)

ALMOND FLOUR MUFFINS

3 cups zuchini grated 

1/2 cup blueberries or blackberries

3 eggs

3 cups almond flour

1/3 cup melted butter (I used apple sauce or coconut oil)

1/2 cup of honey 

3 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp allspice

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

(I use carrots, zuchini, beets instead of just zuchini 

you can choose your amounts up to 3 cups)

Grate veges and put aside

In seperate bowl, whisk eggs, butter (or oil or applesauce) and honey. 

Put grated veges and fruit into egg mixture and mix well.

In another seperate bowl, put in nut flour, spices, baking soda and salt.  Mix well.

Put all together and mix but do not over-mix.

Put into greased muffin pan or use muffin/cupcake cups (paper ones)

I've discovered that the cupcake paper cups are best and wait till muffins are cooled.  They peel off alot better this way.

 ENJOY!!!

Can you think of anything better than a warm, freshly baked muffin with a 

yummy cup of java? (or tea if you're the "tea totalling" kind)
