It has been my experience that brown rice makes a great breakfast! It’s very filling, high in fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals. At around 200 calories a cup it really does pack a lot of nutrition and energy. I’m going to share my recipe for a tasty and sweet breakfast treat that’s really good for you. Hint: I buy the jasmine brown rice and add a half a teaspoon or so of tea leaves to the rice while cooking. Tea leaves do something totally amazing to the rice in terms of flavor. If you have never tried this technique with your rice I would encourage you to do so!

Whole Foods Inc., Fatties and Smokers
Whole Foods supermarket gives %30 discount to employees that are “fit and non-smoking.” Fatties and smokers get %20 discount. lol.
I’m calling a fail whale on this one.
It seems counter productive to do this, no? If you want your fat and smoking employees to get healthy, I don’t know… it makes more sense to give the bigger discount to the employees that need it the most? Call me crazy, but this %20 for fatties and %30 for the beautiful people seems more like “punishment” rather than a genuine concern with getting people healthy.
As we all know, “punishment” does not work. The fatty or smoker employed at Whole Foods will be less likely to shop in store if the discount can’t match what they can find at a less expensive venue. We all know that the food that is the worst for you, is the cheapest.
