LOL why would I do any of that? I'm sorry you're upset by it, but it's just an opinion. And it's from a TV show LOL, it's not even my own. If you want to go buy groceries for 50% upcharge because they put a pillow under the chickens ass and that somehow makes it taste better to you, be my guest, I don't care. The amount of protein and nutrients per serving size of any item you buy at whole foods is the same as that item purchased elsewhere.

Was the whole foods chicken fed a better diet? probably. Was the edamame grown in better conditions? probably. Have I ever been able to tell the difference? No. Has anyone ever explicitly explained how one would impact my health over the other? Not to my satisfaction. That's how I arrive at that conclusion.

Your name is jogging music, I figured you enjoyed running. I wasn't driving at anything. You should take this opportunity to tell me to go F myself, given my name :D

Indeed

At least I'm not unhinged lol, go for a run pal.

I believe you. Do what you think is best for your kids. Good luck.

I lived in Glastonbury growing up. I went to East Catholic my first two years of high school and then transferred back to GHS. The public school program was far more rigorous and had more AP options than East Catholic by a long shot. My graduating class had almost 20 kids go to ivy league schools, EC had 1 or 2.

It really depends on the student and the school. I have no familiarity with Shelton public schools, but IMO if the student is engaged, socially apt and eager to learn, they'll do well in either environment. I would say most people send their kids to public school before they go the private school route, usually due to bad experiences/poor teachers/bullying/etc. Also it's expensive. EC is about $15,000/year to attend. Totally not worth it if you have access to quality public schools, but that's just my opinion.

Who cares?

I eat for nutrition anyways, I run/lift 5-6 times a week, ski and golf so I try to prepare most if not all of my food. It's cheaper and just as nutrient dense as the mega super duper free range cruelty free options at whole foods 🙄

So I was somewhat wrong. They were fed borderline expired, lower quality grocery store items advertised as fine cuisine and they were food critics. They thought the meal was wonderful because the ambience, waiter, etc.

It's somewhat related I guess idk. Go shop there if you want. I can't tell the difference between Nature's Promise and Bell and Evans, and frankly I'm happy I can't if there is one.

People shop there just to flex I swear. The quality thing is mostly a placebo effect. They choose to think the item is better quality, otherwise it would mean they've been duped.

Reminds me of a "Penn and Teller: Bullshit!" episode where they had two groups of restaurant customers. They fed some people frozen TV dinners elegantly plated and in a fine dining setting, and others fine dining food served on chain restaurant plates and in a more casual setting. Guess which food got the better reviews?
