Fake Bread

Nowadays
Most of the time

I eat fake bread
GF bread

For health reasons
My wife can’t tolerate the real thing

And so,
I eat fake bread
Fake pasta
Fake pizza
 
 But every so often
 I want the real deal    

 I crave bread
 Made with wheat
 
 And a real pizza
 And real pasta
And real donuts

No disrespect to those like my wife who has celiac disease.  But the bread was originally made with wheat. hence in that sense "GF bread is Fake Bread. " giving my definition of "fake" meaning altered from the original in some fashioned.  Granted the wheat used nowadays has little to do with the original wheat used by our ancestors.  and gluten is probably bad for everyone. 

Fake Cheese
 

In America
Most commercial cheese
Are processed cheese products
 
Chemically enhanced fake cheese
With maybe 25 percent
Real cheese from real cows
 
The rest
Chemicals and flavorings
And who knows what
 
Can’t pronounce the damn ingredients
And that can’t be good
 
I crave real cheese
My favorite is Tillamook cheese
From Oregon
 
But I love real cheese
But I have to restrict myself
 
If I eat what I want
I would gain 25 pounds
Overnight
 
My wife claims
Even thinking about cheese
Causes me to gain weight
 
And so,
cheese is banned
From my house

And boy do I miss
Real cheese
 
Never liked the fake stuff though
Just not a Velveeta cheese product fan
 

Fake KFC
 
There is a joke
That many years ago
KFC was ordered to change
Their name
 
From Kentucky Fried Chicken
To KFC
 
Because according to the court
The chicken contained only 10 percent chicken meat
The rest was chemicals, soy, other extenders
 
And the chicken was not fried
And not made anymore
in Kentucky
 
That may or not be true
But  I did visit the KFC museum
Near the highway rest stop
Where the first KFC opened up
 
Back when they produced real fried chicken
From chickens sourced in Kentucky

And it was 100 percent chicken meat
With spices etc
No extenders at all
 
I toured the museum
But did not eat there
 
Last time I ate at a KFC
Was in Sapporo Japan
for five weeks 

When my American co-workers
Insisted on an American fast food lunch
 
I got sick from the KFC
My body just could not handle
The chemicals anymore
 
And so,
I never went back
And never will

 
Fake Mc Donald’s
 
Mc Donald’s is the king
Of the fake food industry
 
Their burgers are unnatural abominations
If you leave the burgers out for days

You can still cook them
And that ain’t natural
And ain’t right
 
No one knows really
What is in the burgers
That is a corporate secret
 
But one knows
That it can’t be good for you
 
I lost my taste for Mc Donald’s
And Burger King and Wendy’s
About ten years ago
 
I last ate at Burger King in St Lucia
And ate at Mc Donalds in India
 
Mc Donalds in India
Is not allowed to serve beef

They finally settled on a chicken burger
As their burger of choice
 
Wisely abandoning the Raja mutton burger
Which just tasted horrible
The veggie burgers were the best though
 
But I still crave a burger
And will eat at other chains
Or gourmet burger places
 
But the sad reality
The burgers are all the same
Ten percent beef
The rest chemicals and extenders
 
One day a study came out
Linking eating fast food burgers
To ED among men
 
And that may be true
It is also true

That eating fast food daily
is courting death at an early age
 
One day the CEO of Burger King
Came out in a Press conference
To denounce the movie
Super Size me
 
He said

“Fast food burgers are perfectly safe
And delicious
I had a Whopper for lunch”
 
Then he collapsed and died
From a massive heart attack
 
Poetic justice
At work
  
Fake healthy Food
 

The evil food industry executives
Are on to us

They proclaim
That they get it
They need to sell us healthier food
 
And so, they present
all sorts of so-called healthy food
For us to consume
 
Only problem
The food is still
the chemical enhanced fake food
they always make
 
25 percent real ingredients
75 percent chemicals and extenders
 
they just slap a healthy choice label on it
charge you double
and proclaim it is healthier for you
Than the other crap they sell
 
but no processed food is healthy
only food created from scratch
can be considered healthy food
 
So, as you enjoy
your healthy choice fake food
just remember this

it is still fake food
still poison
