Real Corn Only! Day 10

Well, it's Day 10.  Really haven't noticed much of a difference.  To be honest, the more I think about it, the more I realize that I already didn't eat much HFCS anyway.  The main thing was the occasinoal Soda and Candy.  The things I need to watch out for are things that are fried in Corn Oil.  Last Week I biked 50 miles and immediately went to Mongolian Barbecue to gorge myself and got a huge plate of steamed vegetables because I wasn't sure about any of their sauces, and after that I got some potatoes.  The potatoes were probably fried in Corn Oil, which I didn't think about until afterwards.  

The other day at Checkers I was filling the chicken and this guy 

asked me why Smart Chicken was called Smart Chicken, and I told him that it didn't have antibiotics and stuff like that and he seemed to know this.  He asked me if I'd ever seen a feedlot for cows and I said "Yes" and he said it's pretty gross huh?  But then he proeeded to tell me about how we are so full of antibiotics and bad things, then he bought the cheap chicken instead of the Smart Chicken.  It was weird.  He had the knowledge and faculties to know what was going on, but, seemingly, chose to not care, which I can't really blame him for.  At least he had made a decision.  

This morning I watched the first episode of the This American Life tv show, which was about this family who cloned their beloved pet bull.  The original bull was completely tame and friendly and they loved him.  They let him roam around free and he never caused any trouble, ya know, that sort of thing.  Then the cloned one kept getting violent with the owners, but they kept believing that it would turn out to be just like the old one.  It seems true that you can manifest things if you believe them enough.

Either way, it seems that the change may be coming.  I think some people are starting to realize that even though the idea of unnatural things may be good, they may not turn out the same.  Maybe that's my manifestation that I choose to see.
