So, one of the things we try to address is moderation of everything. So, I am a huge chocoholic. I will do anything for some chocolate. So, to go on something that said, listen, you can't have chocolate anymore. I would have to question my living for the rest now because it'd be like, where you just took my chocolate away? What else is there? So, I would definitely we never say you can't have this, you can't have that because it's not realistic and it's not sustainable. You know, we want you to have that chocolate cake. But I mean, we want you to have pieces of it a portion of it a healthy portion.

You see all these ridiculous diets, and a lot of them are just regurgitated diets from yesterday, you know, we're going to change the name, we're going to rebrand it, and we need to, you know, spit this out again. And I blame a lot of this on like, I call it social media university. You have a lot of people that go on social media, they cherry pick information, and then they get their doctorate in, you know, social media University, and they start putting this out to everybody. Well, I can only eat dandelions standing on one leg on Fridays, and this is the best way to get healthy is to do that. And then they promote it, promote it promote it and people actually start to believe it. So, what it does, is it makes a confused, and complicated, very, very complicated way of thinking of how to get healthy.

Chef Rich Rosado

Alright, so you want to make sure that your heart and your mind are together to say, I know we can do this, we can definitely do this, and then start eating healthy fats. Then start eating lean protein and stay away from the fatty proteins and good carbs, you know, stay away from the white carbs. Obviously, start to have a lot of different whole grains. And one of the things that we've seen, when we talk about this with a lot of people is they want to do the right thing they just don't know how to. They don't know how to cook brown rice, they don't know how to cook barley, they don't know how to cook this vegetable. We did a whole program for the city of Orlando out here. And what we...one of the things that we heard time and time again, is I didn't know what that was, I didn't know what that vegetable was. So, I never bought it because I didn't know what it was.
