There is a point in life where what you eat doesn’t matter as long as it doesn’t give you heartburn. I believe the point coincides with the realization that you are really managing your kids inheritance and not your savings…..
An uncle of mine, long deceased, used to occasionally suggest forming a militant moderate organization. He said that anyone who refused to be moderate in all aspects of life should be shot.
In other words, “I appreciate your concern Brutus, but I got this.” Brutus can’t help but worry about uncle Ted. The problem is uncle Ted does not want to be worried about. In other other words, myob. (Mind your own bacon.)
Life is too short to deprive myself of food I enjoy. If it shortens my life by a few years, at least I will have enjoyed my time on earth, at least food-wise.

Uncle Ted must be a…..moderator.

I think that living as if you were sick to die healthy is useless. So Uncle Ted can eat bacon. Without exceeding, however.

Everything in moderation is good as long as there’s lots of moderation.

In my opinion “moderation” depends on one’s definition.

Show me someone who has practiced moderation their entire life and I will show you someone who has lived a very boring life.

I agree with Uncle Ted. Moderation is good for Brussels sprouts, kale and arugula. Not for the Three B’s: bacon, beer and bourbon

University of Illinois professor Fred Kummerow was asked how he managed to live to 102. He smiled and said, “Cheese”.

Hmmm. Seems to me that the punch line was also one of the “tag lines” of Dorit of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

I believe in moderation, but I’m not a fanatic about it.

I like moderation, especially regarding flavor and spice. I also like moderation when I am tired … of anything. Be strong Brutus.
