the real tragic of "let them eat cake" wasn't just bourgeoise naivité, it was the perfect storm of innocence and malice, ordering the starved masses poisoned

The brioche was a wicked invention. I’ve been surprised how much this diet has impacted my mood, energy levels, & sleep patterns. Sure, I knew chocolate & crisps were bad—I never suspected most fruit, bread, pasta etc were basically doping me and making me feel awful.

I'm a firm believer in fruit myself, I think bread is the major issue. Don't neccesarily think cutting it entirely is neccesary, but the western diet has definately been overfed on bread, pasta, the like. like most things I blame the industrial revolution

What surprised me, when I actually checked, was how much carbohydrates (sugars) are present in fruit. I had some raspberries three weeks in and it was as sweet as drinking coke on my tongue. I realised my palet was jaded & these had been bred to be incredibly sweet.

Wild fruit is too sour, too grimey, to acidic, etc etc etc for most people. Offer someone a piece of fruit you've picked and they will react in dissapointment at best. this is a major tell

everyone always goes to "oh look, all the Harm We Are Doing To Nature™, this fruit tree has been ruined by carbon emissions", or some variant. This is a mistake, and you are 100% on point about breeding

I’m fortunate enough that my father keeps an allotment, so I have tasted less commercially bred varieties of fruit and veg. And also honey as well, which is interesting bc the flavour differs according to the flowers visited by each hive.

I'm not sure surcrose-y fruit is that bad (I'm eating lots of bananas lately and I seem good) but effects may vary. Fruit juice, even something as seemingly innocuous as orange or cranberry juice, is a major culprit as they almost always add way more sugar than nature intended.

Yes, I suspected something like that. I was surprised at the hit. I was weak as a kitten, as if I’d been running or working out really hard. Awful feeling.
