al. The four food groups dont exist to the media. Americans used to follow the food groups religiously now the biggest group is fats. Americans dont realize they need proper nutrions to run there body healthy and smoothly. The largest food group is fruits and vegetables. Vegetables provide protein for the body.

A person may think they are hungry when they are really thirsty. They eat there fast food and drink there pop and they think they are still hungry! No, they are even thirstier. Drink water out of your sink, out of a bottle, just drink it and it will get to be a habit. Eventually the only thing that will quench your thirst will be water. Why do we let the media control our own eating habits? They are killing us slowly. Do yourself and fellow Americans a favor dont eat at such lousy food places. Dont let the media win you over. Take a stand for your health. It is never to late to break a bad habit. Realize the media does not care about you. Think about how much fat is in the Quarter Pounder you just o...
