Now think about it: our daily, Western diet usually consists of foods with high amounts of saturated fats, sodium (salt), and added sugars. This diet is killing us faster or causing chronic diseases (heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, etc.). We work several hours per day in addition to going to school. And when we arrive home, we have chores to do: laundry, cleaning the house, helping our kids with their homework, etc. Who has time to prepare healthy, colorful meals from scratch? Ok...I get it. I understand and guilty too of eating the average American Western diet. So...if we are going to buy dinner on our way home (pizza, hamburgers, etc.), stop at a fast food restaurant to eat, etc. what can we add, avoid, eat less, or substitute in the fast food meals that we buy to make them healthy, with less or no saturated fats, less sugars, less sodium, and add color to them? We are supposed to "eat a rainbow of foods" everyday, right?
