...The Truth About Protein Powders and Meal Replacements and Bars The majority of protein supplements are packed with ingredients that create the exact opposite result that people want when they go to purchase protein. With the wrong ingredients protein shakes and bars can make you feel hungry, bloated, crave sugar and completely stall your weightloss. Heres why: Dirty Protein Secret Number 1: Added Sugar Many Protein supplements are packed full of added sugar. Sugar is the number one enemy when it comes to getting into shape. When you body digests sugar your body converts sugar into fat. Sugar also creates crazy cravings, so even though you are trying to do the right thing by having a protein shake before you know it you have uncontrollable cravings for all the wrong types of food. Have a look at how many ways sugar has been sneaked into this protein supplement: Check the list of ingredients on a protein supplement and if you find any of the following ingredients you have found sugar: Corn Syrup, Glucose Syrup, Invert Syrup, treacle, fruitrim (fruit juice and brown rice syrup (sugar!) and Sugar Cane juice. Dirty Protein Secret Number 2: Craving Causing Chemicals. If your protein supplement hasn't been packed full of sugar your can be pretty sure you will find artificial sweetener in it.

Ingredients 10 small granny smith apples 1 envelope knox gelatin ½ cup water ½ cup coconut milk 2 drops yellow food coloring 1 envelope Land o Lakes caramel hot chocolate (Regular would do just fine if you can’t find caramel) ¼ cup sugar ½ cup butterscotch schnapps (omit for non-alcohol version) lemon juice Instructions Half and hollow out apples cutting them from the stem down. I used a melon baller to hollow the apples and it worked well. After hollowing them squeeze some lemon juice on top to reduce browning. Mix your ½ cup water with your envelope of hot chocolate in a medium sized sauce pan. Whisk it to make sure all the chocolate is combined. Add the ½ cup of coconut milk, whisk again. Sprinkle your gelatin on top and let it sit a few minutes. Turn on low/medium heat and mix the gelatin until all is combined. Add ¼ cup sugar and simmer slightly until sugar is combined. Add your food coloring until you get the caramel color desired. I used two drops. Let mixture cool to warm. Pour in your ½ cup of butterscotch schnapps. (Omit for non-alcohol version) With your apples arranged so they fit tightly and secure on a cookie sheet, pour your caramel jello mixture into your apples. Refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Most of the people nowadays are giving much priority on health and wellness of their well being. Proper exercise, adequate sleep and eating nutritious food and well balanced meal, fruits and vegetables are some of the basic correct practices in order to achieve healthy body and well being. However, it is a fact that having well balanced meal a day would require additional expenses and more time to cook and prepare the same. Thus, it would be very difficult for poor families to be able to serve nutritious meal in their dining table. Moreover, there is this perception of people that nutritious foods are not delicious food and ordinarily to some of them tasteless and not delicious to look at especially in the eyes of the children. That is why the goal of every parent in every household to serve appetizing and nutritious meal is always unachieved and has become an empty promise. One way to address this problem is to choose a vegetable or fruit that is not costly, readily available and loaded with nutritional value. Cook or prepare it in such a way that it would look delicious and appetizing for children. In such a way, the children would enjoy the nutritional value and good taste of food. One of the not so costly vegetable is Malunggay (Moringa oleifera). It is considered as “poor man’s vegetable” because it is cheap in price, could be found everywhere and loaded with vitamins and minerals. Aside from eating malunggay, it is also...

...and vegetables in the area. These include plantains, hearts of palm, and yucca fruit. The Native Americans also taught the Spaniards how to fish and prepare seafood. The blended cooking style of the Spanish and French is the base of Floribbean (Chef Jon, 2013).. Floribbean cuisine influence comes from the Bahamas, Cuba, and Jamaica. Floribbean variety of taste stems from Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti. Floribbean cuisine is called “New World Cuisine”. The food is infused with mango, citrus flavors, and Florida's exotic fruits. The use of local produce, fish, and seafood with traditional uncommon spices make the food one of a kind (Chef Jon, 2013). In the 1950’s, when Cubans came to Florida is when the most influence of Floribbean Cuisine came about (Nemes, 2007). Cubans mixed Spanish flavors with Caribbean ingredients. More influences came from the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Nicaragua, and other South American countries. There is a huge emphasis on using fresh food in Floribbean cooking (Nemes, 2007). There is a large variety of fruits and fruit juices used in the cuisine. Floribbean Cuisine uses ingredients such as calabeza, banana leaf, banana pepper, boniato, adobo, avocado, annatto, coconut, grouper, and guava, heart of palm, passion fruit, and plantains. Some Floribbean dishes include conch chowder, plantain chips, blackened grouper, and chicken with tamarind ginger sauce, Heart-of-Palm salad, and...

...Cameron Dufour Consumer Behaviour Journal Week of October 30th, 2011 Items/Services Purchased | | Cost ($) | Details | Groceries - Wal-Mart & Sobeys | | $55.00 | Personal | Gasoline - Macewen North | | $20.00 | Social | Fast Food - Subway | | $15.00 | Social | Picture Frame - Wal-Mart | | $15.00 | Personal | Cell Phone | | $60.00 | Personal | Total | | $165.00 | | Summary: As I look over for my purchases for this week, I have noticed that they were pretty even for personal and social events. Both the groceries and picture frame purchases were mandatory. From the grocery bill, $20.00 was a purchase from Wal-Mart for a box of chicken. The specific reason why I purchased the brand of chicken from Wal-Mart rather than any other store is because after evaluating different brands of boxed chicken this brand from Wal-Mart gives me more quantity for a cheaper price and the quality is more satisfactory to me. The extended problem solving for me ended up making my satisfactory level higher, and also made my budget a lot easier to organize. The rest of the grocery bill was spent at Sobeys. Reason being is because it was spontaneous shopping. Since only doing groceries last week and the box of chicken was purchased because of a shortage at home, the purchase was not mandatory but ended up being a surprise for even myself. Sobeys had sales on food that I regularly purchase at No Frills at the time being, so I decided to take advantage of the opportunity presented...

Actual diet history I’ve always been the type of person who wants to be happy as an elderly person. So instead of taking supplements later, id rather eats my fruits and vegetables now. Also, for the benefits of healthy teeth and certain textures. So my mother always buy me apples, oranges, grapes, bananas, pears, celery, carrots ect for snack also for healthy teeth. I also have a routine of going out to eat at least 2 times a week. Every Sunday I eat Mc Donald’s #7meal “large”, Wednesday I eat a 10 piece lemon pepper wing combo from American Deli. I eat out the vending machine at least 3 to 4 times a week at school. I live like 10 minutes away from a convience store I spend most of my money there because I always find myself walking there 2 to 3 times a day.

...Niche Products and There Demand Identify at least three challenges when setting up a business. Explain why they are challenges. When setting up a business one must know that there will be challenges that will occur. The first challenge in setting up a business is having a business plan that will actually work and getting professional advice about whether the business plan is marketable. The second challenge is having or gaining access to capital to get the business going and to sustain your own expenses until the business pays for itself and pays for you too. The third challenge and to me the most challenging challenge is knowing and realizing that there will be long work hours for the first couple of months or longer until the business begin to grow. Define what a “niche” product is. Give at least three examples of niche products. A “niche” product is something very specific which is not regularly sold in big stores. A “niche” product usually designed not necessarily for everyone. This type of product should be a product that a consumer would have to go to a particular store to purchase it. When I think of a store that sells a “niche” product, I think of what we call a “specialty store.” Three examples of niche products are certain hair products. For example, the Carol’s Daughter hair product is a hair product that is not sold in big stores. In order to purchase this product a consumer must either purchase it on the Home Shopping Network , the consumer can go...
