    We have a local pizza shop, a true Mom-n-Pop, that was incredible. Everything was made in-house, in plain sight of the customers, and they made some fantastic specialty pizzas. Then the owner had some health set-backs and they sold out to another Mom-n-Pop who cut all the corners and the place died. We had been regulars and suddenly you couldn't pay me to eat there. I'm happy to say that the original owners have since bought back the shop and have been slowly rebuilding the reputation and the business, and they are succeeding even in these hard times. Why? Because they have incredibly good pizza.

    If you want good (for you) food, you've gotta make it yourself. Trans-fat, corn syrup, and a list of things you can't pronounce aren't good for you. Unfortunately we've grown accustom to running the rat race and cooking is just another chore, so fast and prepackaged food has become an essential part of life for many people. Big food is in business to sell food and make money doing it, and as long as it doesn't outright kill you or make you immediately ill, the health impact isn't much their concern.
