Sugar the deadly drug
The past few days I decided to cut out sugar or anything sweet altogether. This isn't so much a dietary choice as it is a culinary choice. As I browse through cookbooks, I've read a while back how that our tastes are just too accustomed to sweetness nowadays. That in someways we don't even know what real natural sweetness is since white sugar itself is a very refined and very pure sweet. I wouldn't be surprised that after all the junk food and soft drinks that people consume that they absolutely hate fruit because by comparison it's bitter. No wonder our kids are fucked up.
Anyway, it's day two and I've seem to have gotten past the withdrawl for the most part. I do have certain bouts of cravings, which shows how natural reaching for something sweet and unhealthy is at times. I want to get it to a point where I could actually taste the sweetness of milk...of all things. But we'll have to see how well I'll do in the end.
