Funny Business

Cathy is my neighbor who is living with her husband and newly born twin babies. Basically they are not rich and they live a simple life. I was just wondering how they will manage the expense in getting baby’s stuffs. But I was amazed to see that they give their child best by feeding top brand baby foods and costly baby shampoos and lotions. I was simply wondering how come they are able to manage the expense and that too twin child. I was very curious t know this and asked her about their expense in caring their child. They said that they are using the free samples with the help of the site tripletsmommy.com. She said she bought an e-book from the site which helped to get the free samples of the top quality baby products. She also said that it gives of Enfamil’s free baby formula. This made me very exciting. I am also eager to visit tripletsmommy.com.

How did our family traditions become centered around eating meat? Think about it. When we think of Thanksgiving, we think of turkey. If we eat pork, then New Year’s celebrations often revolve around pork and sauerkraut. At Christian Easter, the traditional meal is ham. And in the summer, we wait for that first hamburger or steak on the grill.

How did that happen to a species that was designed to eat vegetables and fruits, nuts, berries and legumes?

We can imagine that eating meat was initially an opportunistic event, born of the need to survive. The taste of cooked meat, plus the sustained energy that came from eating high-fat meat products made primitive sense even to earliest man.

Initially, finding cooked animal meat, from a forest fire, would have been cause for celebration. It’s something everyone in a clan would have participated in eating together. When man learned to hunt and moved to a hunting orientation, rather than a hunter-gatherer orientation, he would have done this in groups. They would have had to hunt in teams, and killing an animal for food would have been a group effort. Hunting and killing an animal meant food not just for the individual, but for the clan, and would have been cause for celebration when the hunters brought the food home.
