F is for Food Rules

Are you as confused by all of the advice out there these days on the best way to eat to live forever? I am. However, I found a book that explains good eating in terms I can understand, Food Rules, an eaters manual by Michael Pollen. He wrote the book in 2009, but I think it's still relevant today.

Here are a few of his rules:

No. 13  Eat only foods that will eventually rot.

No. 19  If it came from a plant, eat it: if it was made in a                 plant, don't.

No. 20  It's not food if it arrived through the window of                   your car.

No. 45  It's not food if it's called by the same name in                       every language
              (Think Big Mac, Cheetos, or Pringles.)

No. 25  Eat your colors.

No. 36  Don't eat breakfast cereals that change the color                 of the milk.

No. 39  Eat all the junk food you want as long as you cook it yourself.

No. 45  Eat less.

And my favorite:
No. 64  Break the rules once in a while.

Do you have any rules you try to follow for eating?
