This page is a compendium of foods consumed by people in our social network, as told to us on the GRT Fitness Facebook Fan Page.
This highly non-empirical, non fact-based, strictly opinionated list evolved into an all out food trash journal. The point is to realize that what we ate as kids back in the day affects our outlook and our waist size, but only if we allow those foods to do so. Now that we have so much better information, allowing this to continue is a recipe for disaster for people young and old.
