A VERY scientific term that could help you make better choices

I'd like to introduce you to a VERY scientific term I like to call: "The Difference".

One of my favorite lunch foods is tuna. I grew up on it. It happens to be very healthy too. (Of course, like anything, moderation is key. Gotta watch out for the Mercury.)

On the weekends, I like to make myself some tuna salad. I add mayo and celery and sometimes carrots. It's delicious!

Call me what you want...

When I was in 5th grade, I decided (under no one's influence but mine) to cut out soda completely from my diet. What does a 5th grader who idolized Michael Jordan replace it with? Gatorade! And then in 6th grade, I realized how much sugar was in Gatorade so I limited my Gatorade intake to only when I was playing basketball, and drank water with everything else.

Around that time...

I heard about light mayo so I started using it. "Ohhh tuna and light mayo, this is unbeatable now!"

Or so I thought.

After a little while, I was no longer eating tuna fish. Why? I couldn't stomach the taste of light mayo.

It took me a while to realize this but finally I chucked the light mayo and went back to regular mayo. Once again, I was as happy as ever with my tuna. :)

I realized "The Difference" right then and there. Some foods aren't negotiable. Mayo happens to be one of them for ME (maybe not for you though).

But if you ask me to choose between a beef burger or turkey burger 90% of the time, I'm just as happy with the turkey burger.

If you ask me to choose between a whole wheat bun and regular bun, I'm just as happy with the whole wheat bun.

If you ask me to choose between frozen yogurt and ice cream, I'm just as happy with the frozen yogurt.

There's many examples where the healthier version is just as good. Sometimes it's even BETTER! Many times, "The Difference" isn't all that different. And it's definitely worth it to choose the healthier version.

And for some foods "The Difference" is NOT worth it. No matter what, I need the real deal version.

Is there a lighter version of something you eat?

Examples:

Egg whites instead of whole eggs?

Turkey bacon instead of regular bacon?

Baked chips instead of regular chips?

Dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate?

Turkey hot dogs instead of regular hot dogs

Baked chicken instead of fried chicken?

Skim milk instead of whole milk?

Think about that this week.

Seek "The difference" when possible!
