...One thing that always struck me as a kid  was how much time and 
effort people in those days spent doing things like  tapping trees to 
get the sap to make a little bit of maple syrup.  Contrast that  with 
our current situation: A person with no special skills can knock on 
doors  in my neighborhood and make $8 an hour doing basic yardwork. In 
90 minutes, he  will have enough money to go down to the local Sam’s 
Club or Costco and buy fifty pounds of refined white sugar.  Refined

results in that  unfortunate combination of feeling stuffed, yet 
craving more.  After 48  hours of cutting out all carbs, this 
phenomenon VANISHED.  Hunger is now a  far different feeling, more like 
the not-unpleasant muscle ache after a workout.   I'm hungry right now, 
so when this is done I'll fry up three strips of bacon.   I'll like the 
taste, and after three strips I won't want any more.  This  phenomenon 
still amazes me.
