As you suggest in the last sentence; it should not be an all or nothing
proposition. Less-healthful foods in moderation can be an effective way of
keeping the cravings under control. Also, not all fat is bad - fish oil is
good, though high-calorie, as are most nuts and the fat they contain.

Bacon: lower sodium bacon is available and quite tasty; still a lot of
sodium, but manageable when looking at an entire meal or day's sodium
intake.
Fat: Again, one or two high-fat items are not much of a problem when
limited to an occasional treat. Also, there are different kinds of fat and
they have different effects; bacon and peanut butter (natural, ground
peanuts, maybe a touch of salt, nothing else) contain different kinds of
fat. The fat in bacon is tasty but not healthful, the fat in peanut butter
is both tasty and healthful.

One last comment; one of the best sandwiches I ever had was bacon and peanut
butter on toasted whole wheat. 8-P

Julie,

They grew so tall, we'd lasso branches and yank the avocados down! It
was a fun chore. Earned my keep, if nothing else! A little black and
blue here and there, but so what!?! :)

Best,

Andy

Actually there is no such thing as healthy food... what, you can take
the pulse and BP of a potato? Nowadays "healthy" is probably the most
misused word in the English language, even so-called food mavens in
the media sound like uneducated jerks, they never learned that the
correct word is "healthful". You can have a healthy portion of food
but you can't have a healthy food. A healthy portion is not
necessarilly healthful because a healthy portion is a large
portion.... like a corned beef sandwich at Katz's deli is
healthy/zaftig... juicy and succulent... my favorite female figure:
