Mid- month Grocery Haul + Week 2 eating one-ingredient food (It did NOT go well!) 

Sadly the reason they have to add these things back in is because they are taken out during the processing to make the flour shelf stable. :( Instead of adding back in the bran, etc that has all of the good stuff, they make more money by selling it separately and adding vitamins.

I think she’s referring to glyphosate a chemical sprayed on food

Yes! Synthetic is not the same and is certainly not processed the same in our bodies. Also, they add huge amounts of gluten (way more than naturally occurs). It’s a wonder why so many are developing an intolerance.

A nurse friend told me that she learned that it was to help prevent a lot of deficiencies for people who were surviving solely on bread products. And goiters... preventing goiters.

Yes but the deficiencies were solely caused by the flour processing, removing the “good stuff” to make it shelf stable. Instead of putting it back in, they had already found a “niche” to sell the bran separately so they instead add synthetic to make up for it.

This is actually great information. So glad you commented because I didn’t know this 👌🏻

100% cold symptoms are for sure a sign of milk intolerance. The mucus then leads to eat infections and sinus infections.

That’s really good to know, thank you!!🙏🏼🙏🏼

Don't even have to have any intolerances or allergies for the mucus to happen. I never drink milk, if I have a cold.

This happens to me too! I had an awful time as a child with sinus infections and strep throat until I found out about my food allergies!

Me too! Her kids are fun to watch!

January is also just a difficult month, I've noticed. A change in diet can also throw a person for a loop. Prayers for Sarah and her family.

But when he looked at her it was like “hey girl!”

😂

🙌🏻

Strongly agree...you are doing fine, stop putting yourself down. Home cooks are fine none (most of us) are not pro chefs and we all learn.

🤣🤣🤣 so much truth

Yes. No caffeine for this mommy = rough week. I imagine it could impact you too, Sarah!

Most flour in Australia only has 1 ingredient

@@jessstewart5483 apologies. I may have bread & flour mixed up there. Regardless, the addition of vitamins (folate & thiamine) to bread products (whether to the flour or the bread during dough making) is a public nutrition strategy, not for a preservative action in the flour, so I wouldn't view it as an issue from a home bread-making point of view, to use flour with those ingredients, which everyone needs to get from what they eat anyway. Especially if the costs/effort involved in milling, storing & using the home milled flour is varstly outweighed by the enjoyment & convenience of using a very minimally processed product, such as flour. But it is everyone's choice to make about the ingredients they use, of course.

@@rachelm.3158 firstly, as an essential nutrient, I cannot see how any water-soluble vitamin could be toxic to any human, except in extremely excessive doses. Our bodies are very efficient at get rid of excess nutrients. I am not aware of any evidence that shows that synthetic folate acts any differently in the body, than the naturally occurring substrate? I'm not a biochemist but I understand that the synthesized version of a vitamin/mineral is typically identical in form to its naturally occurring counterpart. In fact, the prevalence of neural tube defects significantly reduced after introduction of folate into the food system and recommendations to pregnant women to supplement with the synthesised versions. There is plenty of gluten sensitivity in Australia, & that sensitivity exists separate to fortified products.

@@rachelm.3158 As an essential nutrient, I cannot see how folic acid could be toxic to any individual who is able to normally excrete water-soluble vitamins. Also, I am not aware of any evidence that synthesised folic acid acts differently to naturally occurring folate in the body. I am not a biochemist but my understanding is that, in general, synthetic forms of vitamins are identical in molecular structure to their naturally occurring counterparts. In fact, the reality that neural tube defects significantly declined in the population after addition of folate to the food supply & specific supplementation of pregnant women with these synthesised versions, demonstrates the efficiency of synthetic folate to act "normally". Also, there is plenty of gluten sensitivity in the Australian population, separate to fortified food products & multi-vitamin taking. There may well be individual differences in how these synthetic vitamins are processed, but that needs to be determined on a case-by-case basis, not assumed of everyone & thus removed from everyone's diet "just in case" - the nutritional risks far outweigh the potential benefits.

Thank you for all the hard work, you, and other medical staff are doing during this difficult time

so cute though!

Did solo get friendzoned???

10 kids and he still got friendzoned 😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeeees!! This one too.

plus cilantro and lime 😊

YUM!

Same!

Same here. Dr. McDougal's starch solution. It's a brilliant way to eat .

Same here 😄

Steaks and tuna. Lol

Queso on sushi delicious

Same here. I need to reorganization our pantry and inventory. I’m going to also be looking at ingredients too

I think that the reason she's so tired because of the dates she and Solo had...that led to 10 kids 😆. I'll see myself out now😔

@@barbarapearson5896 😂😂🤣🤣

10 kids...I think they have lots of dates. If I had 10 kids, I'd stay tired...but such a nice family.

Good to know! Thanks!!! Several people told me you have one and love yours. I’ve seen a bunch of your videos and love them but never paid attention to you milling flour. It was not on my radar. 🤣🤣🤣

I want one next.. i love making bread and pasta

Beanless chili... ummm... i dont know about that flavor..🤔

MY TWO FAVORITE RU-vidRS ❤️❤️🥳

Add purple grapes to your tuna, pea pasta salad!! It’s my favorite! Easy quick and it has so much more flavor!

Very true, and a vegetable peeler works great for slicing :)

The problem is finding 1 ingredient cheese to make it! LOL

@@charlottehodges7194 it’s so interesting to me to read these comments. I think the food culture here in France is so different. I can’t check the ingredients on my cheese because it’s just comes in white paper at the cheese shop. Although here is you buy Aop marked food, there are laws stating it can’t not change the traditional recipe therefore nothing extra (ie bad stuff) is added. Surely cheese is just unpasteurised milk and renit and salt depending on the cheese.

@@charlottehodges7194 🤣 didn’t think about that! Oh brother!

we put everything bagel seasoning on ours! (that probably is not a one ingredient food but it is good on them)

Queso on Reeses peanut butter is delicious

Me too, my husband is Salvadoran

I was just thinking this, I wish I was allowed in my kitchen more growing up.

Me too. I learned how to cook when I was older by watching cooking shows on PBS, and a friend's mom , and my husband's grandmother, took me under their wings.

Lol the sad music made me laugh so hard

I’m so impressed. I’ve tried many things but never grinding my own flour. I wouldn’t know where to start.

@@notavailable5911 , I love them. Saves us money and we eat healthier 🙂.

We did try that thanks to another suggestion here. Loved it!!!

@@OurTribeofMany put honey or jam or syrup on it and its yummy

In Japan we eat sprouted beans and sprouted peanuts almost everyday or every meal... soups, sides and even in pancakes

Great idea ! Kills two items ( hunger and learning) with one item ! Now that is efficient !

They love killing us slowly and making it so millions of us need their pharmaceuticals ! We’re the #1 country for obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer etc and 99% of it all is caused by the foods they sell us

We have such a huge country and huge areas of food insecurity. We have to produce food that will not go badly as quickly and affordable. The Netherlands has 17 million people, the US has 330 million of which 34 million are living in poverty. And a great many more are close to the poverty line. The comparison doesn’t work. When given the choice, people want fresh food that is affordable. It’s just not often the case. So many Americans are feeding their families the absolute best foods that they can afford and have available to them and sometimes that looks like flour with six ingredients.

@@jennysnook thank you for this perspective!

How do that brand taste a y difference from other brands?

Fit and frugal mom today gave a discount code for thrive market.

@@dancieteague6854 I’ll check it out ! Thanks 😊

The Wads aso have a discount code for Thrive Market.

@@annabautista7837 YHR WADS....ain't she great....shes soooo funny

@@happyinharned2597 yes! I’m subscribed to her too. She might seem (or she says herself) like a mess but she really is such a good mother!

My sister used a cup of salt in a cake instead of a tsp....we called it pretzel cake, it was awful lol

I once baked an apple pie for a boy. It would have been a much better pie if I'd remembered to use Sugar and less salt, lol.

Although if you have a science background and are used to saying words like ”methylcellulose” out loud, this might not work! 😅

Hugs. Feel better.

Me too

I have been practically living on Kitchari, and am searching for the video that they show their dengue recipe. Must try 🤗

@@julesmbc They’ve shown it a couple times I think, but this is one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r1C3lbxS45s.html

I was given some but didn’t know what to do with them so thank you 😊

@@hetheringtonfamily8798 I threw them out after I boiled them because I hated them! I love beans and they are the only bean I’ve ever not liked. I’m going to use the rest to sprout and throw the bean sprouts in stir fries and things.
