Broccoli: Proof Life is Not Fair


Life is not fair.  For proof, look no farther than your dinner plate.
Consider.   Sugar is poison.
Sugar sucker-punches the nutritious foods you eat and then races ahead of them, adding a zillion calories in doing so.  But sugar tastes thrilling—something akin to a carnival with fun music and wild parties on your taste buds.
Broccoli, on the other hand, is a superfood.
Broccoli provides vitamin C, fiber, and cancer fighting antioxidants.  But it tastes like broccoli.
