Hi,

Some people enjoy taking the fun and flavor out of eating.  I have family  
members who don't have a single "whole food" in their refrigerator.

If it isn't decaffinated, calorie reduced, fat free, artificially  
sweetened and flavored, you will not find it in their home.

They think they are doing themselves some giant favor.

If I figure out the "favor", I'll let you know.

Later,
Tom
