Why I went natural?

This is the story of how I turned from using regular sugar to natural sugar aka honey. Here is how it went.

Once upon a time there lived a gentleman who was happy having his occasional coffee with regular sugar. He was healthy and had BWI of 21 so to say he did not need artificial sugars nor did he like them. In fact he hated the taste they had and also the fact that they had side effects.

His lifestyle changed a bit after he married and moved to Scranton. He had to travel once a week to Philadelphia which was about 2:45 hrs one way. So to reach his office in Philadelphia by 9:00 AM he would start at around 6:00AM and in order to do that he had to wake up at 5:00AM. So that is quite early for this lazy, wake up at 8:00AM, casual person. His life turned upside down with this but he found a partner in caffeine.

Being an avaricious reader, he found that too much caffeine is bad and found that Tea is a better alternative as it has lower Caffeine and has antioxidants that are good for his allergies. So he began to drink Tea instead of coffee. But this habit turned out not so good to his young bride who loved her sleep a lot more than he does.

He pleads to his wife to make his Tea on the day of his journey. She abides to his request despite her love for sleep. But the story does not end there. If you remember the story is about how he went natural. Well here is what happened next.

The first day she made Tea she used Sweet N Low. Being a nit picker he instantly recognized the taste of non cane artificial sugar. Not only did the sugar taste differently, but he could taste nothing but sugar. It was as if he was drinking High Fructose Corn Syrup. What happened was she used about 5 packs of Sweet N Low in an
8oz Tea.

He got rid of all the Sweet N Low that got into his home accidentally. This made him feel that all will be fine despite his hardships now that he will have his good caffeine friend for company. Not so fast said his wife non-verbally.

The next time around he found himself drinking an exotic tea that could be found nowhere on earth. He had tasted all kinds of tea including black tea with no sugar. But he was drinking a Double Salted Tea this time. In her sleepish nonchalance she had used two spoons of salt from the container next to the sugar. If she was awake, she would have noticed the blue/black cover with a girl in yellow frock carrying an umbrella. She did notice nothing of that sort. All she saw was salt was white and she knew sugar was white.

Now the worried king (in his dreamland) wondered how he can fix this. He was not willing to make the tea himself. He had lots of other things to take care of that morning the important of which is getting up at 5:00AM which he would snooze to wake up at 5:30AM from when he would be like a chicken with it's head cut out. Nor does he have the extra 10 Min's to take a break at the service plaza for coffee.

So he decided that only way is to find something that was not sugar but sweet. He was watching TV one evening while thinking for a solution. He was watching Seinfeld his all-time favorite show and during break they had a clip of an interview with Jerry Seinfeld the writer/producer of the show. He was talking about his break since the show became syndicated and was promoting his new movie where he provides a voice over to the prime character. The name of the move - Bee Movie.

All those who say TV is an idiot box are nuts he thought. A solution to his problem stung like a Bee. He put on his shoe, took his jacket and went out to his favorite store the mighty Wal-Mart. He went to the cereal aisle and bought himself an 8lb Honey bottle.

He called his dear life mate and said sweetly....
HONEY! use this HONEY!!!!

They lived naturally ever after.
