Food

2012 means in with the "new" and out with the "old."  And, earlier this week, I decided to clean out my kitchen cabinets and throw away some "non-perishable" food that I hadn't gotten around to eating . . . IN YEARS!  After filling two huge bags, Jaclyn and I decided that we would show you what I found and prove, once and for all, that there is no such thing as "non-perishable" food!  Watch the video now, but brace yourself!!

If you know me, then that headline should be the attention-grabber of the decade. But, yes, friends, I have grown tired of eating. Alas, it doesn't mean I WON'T; it just means I'd rather not.

Yesterday at the Christmas Wish office, Jaclyn reached into her bag and noticed that someone had opened her Christmas Tree snack cake, taken a bite, then wrapped it back up and put it back in her bag.  Naturally, she accused me!  Now, on any given day, there are DOZENS of volunteers our Christmas Wish office.  Any single one of them could have reached into Jaclyn's mongrammed 31 Bag and taken out that blasted icing-filled tree of delight.  But did she think about the other possibilities???  NO!!!!!!  Watch what happened next!

A couple of years back, Moon and I were dared to eat sardines live on the air.  And it didn't go really well.  Moon bought a can of sardines that were coated in mustard and they were gnarly!  Mine were coated in some kind of olive oil or sesame oil or peanut oil or motor oil!  Whatever it was, they were just as bad as Moon's!  But, we accepted the challenge, ate the sardines and paid for it the rest of the day.  We both smelled like the coast of Maine for about 24 hours.  So, we decided that it was time for Jaclyn to face her fears . . . and eat a nasty old sardine!

We have all eaten while we drive, right? In this new faster-paced age, some of us have no choices some days. It's become an American ritual. And, hopefully, most of us have the wisdom to avoid those food items that would be impossible to manage while driving. In Oak Park, Illinois, the move is on to ban eating and drinking (anything) while driving, altogether. Until that mandate goes nationwide, let's take a look at some foods that Gina Roberts-Grey of MSN Money has pinpointed as hazardous to our on-the-road health.
