Even though I've recently changed my
diet in a rather drastic way by adopting the
Paleo
Diet which severely restricts such foods as processed meat,
pastas dairy, breads and all pastries – I've still allowed myself
two 'open meals' per week where I can stray. This week, my very first
open meal was on a Monday and I chose to enjoy a hamburger and fries
at a local eatery known as
The Frosted Mug. At a cost of only
$6.95, this meal really had only one 'bad' thing going for it
– those oh so tasty French fries!

As a food that made it to #3 on the
list of '
Five worst foods you
can eat', the ubiquitous French fry is not one of the best of foods to eat all the time! It's a fried food and it can add on the pounds in no time! (A much smarter meal would be a hamburger
and a small salad for about the same or less money)! Maybe I'll order
that next time... then again, maybe not!

The hamburger, which was cooked by
Chef
Tim Evans, was top
notch! And, to my credit and surprise, I only ate half that order of
fries! Note: I also made sure to take a couple of capsules of
Fish
oil which is a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, and as such, helps
to balance out the not so good for you Omega-6 acids that come with
eating the meal. If you eat a lot of junk food I would highly
recommend that you take this supplement!
Side note: There is
some new evidence that you can overdo supplements, especially
Vitamins C,B6, E and A, so be careful.
After staying away from the Mug for a
prolonged period of time, I've made I a point to once again frequent
this long-lived eating establishment, especially in light of the
recent improvements to the cooking and the bar-tending staff. Professionals like Heather help made the experience very enjoyable! If you live
in the Forsyth, Mo area, I'd urge you to give them a try!
