"Selma Lozoya didn't realize how tough it would be to help her obese mother lose weight until she had to forage for fresh groceries in the inner city."Calories, Calories, Calories. No mas, no menos.
This is another article that waxes querulously about how bad it is with no "fresh" foods around, suggesting that without them people cannot lose weight.
So how did Lozoya's mom, the featured bodega-victimized bovine fare?
Apparently just fine, thank you.
"Seizing control of her kitchen, Lozoya helped her mom shed 50 pounds by banning lard from tamales and poaching chicken instead of frying it..."How?
By cutting down on Calories. Nothing else. No "fresh" food.
"Like many residents of Lozoya's community, where 28 percent of households live below the federal poverty line, she relies on the small corner grocery a few blocks from her home for chicken, fruit and vegetables."The bottom line is that Calories do not care if you are rich or poor.
But when there is an opportunity to blame someone else for one's woes, it gets seized.
"We call this food apartheid because people have chosen to locate elsewhere even though there is substantial purchasing power here."Bulls**t.
