The Problem with Healthy Food - Or How the Cow Killed Itself!

Why is it so easy to put on weight but hard to take it off?  I feel like we should be more upset that all the food that's bad for us tastes so delicious while all the stuff that's good for us tastes like hot garbage.

Kale?  Oh, you mean dirt lettuce?  Tell me again how dirt lettuce is good for me.  It may be good, but there's not enough of anything to put on Kale to not make it taste like dirt.  Maybe what we should do is feed Kale to cows, we eat the cows, and by proxy we ate Kale.  Maybe the real problem is we aren't feeding our food the right kind of food.

"Here's a delicious steak that ate nothing but Kale for the last two months of its life."
"And it was ethically killed for our consumption?"
"Actually, it committed suicide!"

So, what I'm saying is, there needs to be a way to make food that's good for you not taste like dirt.  It can't be that hard!  If McDonalds can make chicken nuggets (which are delicious) out of stuff that's not even real chicken, then how hard is it to make healthy food not taste like crap?

And there is the dilemma:  I don't eat something because of what "health" effect it has on me.  I eat something based off of how it tastes.  I'm sure almost everyone does that.  And if food smells like feet before I even eat it, safe money is I won't be eating it.

So, all I'm saying to the food industry is find some healthy crap that doesn't smell like feet or farts and I'm in!
