(1) When you were a kid the chicken and eggs probably came from a farm. Now chickens are bred in factories so close together they can barely move. These conditions dramatically promote desease.
To produce more eggs and bigger, the momma chickens are constantly pump full of growth homones. This was not the case when you were a kid (no JUMBO eggs)
(2) When you were a kid the maynaise was made with eggs, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper. Today's mayo is a mix of natural ingredients, and chemical flavorings manufactured in factories along the New Jersey Turnpike. Many of the 'natural' ingredients in moder mayo have been genetically modified (to grow faster and thrive in harsher weather climates)
(3) Hamburger meat... I certainly hope this doesn't need an explaination. 20 years ago butchers still cut meat and used the left overs to make ground beef. Today, over 90% of hambergur meat contains trace amouts of fecal matter. Cows, like chickens, now are bred in giant feedlots, pumped full of homones, fed grain (which is not in their natural diet, but fattens them up quicker), and reduced animal parts that can not be sold to humans. (read 'Fast Food Nation' for a complete description of how ground beef is made)
I'm going to go turn my compost pile now...
