THE LUCKIEST SANDWICH IN THE WORLD

Mr. Friedman was in a shopping centre in Birmingham the other day when he suddenly felt very hungry. He decided to buy himself a sandwich, but when he took his wallet out he discovered that he only had a    $ 50 note. It was six o’clock in the evening, he was really hungry and nowhere else was open. Then he had a crazy idea! He’d buy some lottery tickets and the sandwich. He never did stupid things like that and in fact he never bought lottery tickets. It was the first time in his life.

Mr. Friedman was a cleaner and his wife was a secretary and they didn’t have much money, so when he got home his wife was very angry. ‘We look after our money,’’ she said, “and you go throw it away on lottery tickets! We’re saving for holidays in Brighton!”

That Saturday they watched the results on TV.

They won millions. It’s going to change their lives.

Mr. Friedman says that it was the luckiest sandwich in the world, and it was the luckiest crazy decision! And Mrs. Friedman has forgiven him for wasting their money. They’re going to go on that holiday, but not to Brighton.

Junk Food and ‘Real Food’

A lot of people around the world are getting fat because they eat too much “junk food”. Junk food is food that has a lot of calories, but not many nutrients. Nutrients are things that your body needs, such as vitamins, minerals and fiber.

       Most “fast food”, such as KFC and stuff sold in packages, is junk food. It comes from factories, where scientists add refined sugar, salt and vegetable oil to make it taste good. They do this because they want to make money. They do not care about your health: that is your job.

        Junk food does taste good, too. That’s why people drink huge bags of “iced tea” and Coke, and eat a big bag of potato chips, and still feel hungry. Their brains keep telling them to eat because it knows the body does not have all the nutrients it needs.  Humans evolved eating three main kinds of food: meat, vegetables and fruit. These are “real foods”. Things like refined sugar, flour and vegetable oil are not part of a human’s natural diet.

People eat junk food all over the world. it doesn't matter where you are - in Hungary of Chile, in the USA or in Thailand. In America, which has the most obese people, it is hard for poor people to find ‘real food’. Fresh vegetables and meat are only sold in supermarkets, and they are more expensive than junk foods. Here, we are lucky: real food is still available. But so is junk food.

Your body is the most valuable thing you will ever have in your life, so you should treat your body like a temple – not a garbage bin. Don’t eat junk food.
