FOOD TO "DIE" FOR!!!


As we indulge in the our holiday shopping (because I know you all ain't finished) we will definitely be in the Malls...With African-Americans being prone to Strokes and Heart Diseases it is imperative that we watch what we consume. While out and about shopping let's be careful what we are putting in our bodies...Thanks to a recent study the Mall Foods that we love to eat may be dangerously filled with sodium, fat and cholesterol, the very things that lead to health concerns. Keep a close eye on the list of few things that I love that were pulled from this recent study...
