That isn't ice cream That's flavored lard But spotting the hokum in bogus boasts like 93 percent fat "free" is part of the challenge of being a con sumer in America today And I have become aware of these matters be- 4 -- - :- - -- W9 tt:" '' fr'' t!' make us like their old ways — or to make us think their old ways are the new ways Fat for instance Some of the big money in the food industry today has to do with answering a burgeoning consumer demand for leaner food So a manufacturer can take the fat out of his food Or he can try to con the consumer into thinking he has taken the fat out of his food You do that by declaring fat food "light" But "light" doesn't mean baked fish After all many of us grew up in the era of the frying pan a time when people worked hard in the field and factory all day burning grease to keep going But you can't eat that way if you sit for a living You end up with a lot of greasy chairs So this is a terrible time for people In the edible grease business Butter is dead Meat grease is dead Chocolate chip cookies will soon be avail- Bill Hall t lion The food companies are like the American auto manufacturers who saw those little Japanese cars coming Into this country 15 years ago and laughed it off as fad Similarly a lot of food companies have found themselves in a slim era trying to market fat products Some of them still think it's a fad And I am among the many who sometimes entertain the delusion they are right In weak moments I sometimes expect an announcement that it's all a horrible mistake — that scientists have discovered that butter cookies and greasy potato chips and deep-frie- d lard burgers are beneficial after all I keep waiting for a study proving that people who eat fried pork chops live longer than people who eat frozen lard rip le --- --- able only by going down an alley knocking on a door and telling the face behind the little hole in the door "Greasy Joe sent me" This must be traumatic for some food producers How would you like to be stuck with a factory full of fat during the graying of America a time when geezers all over the nation are having their favorite fat ice cream pried from their old hands by vicious nutritionists? Most of these companies have taken the traditional first step of companies faced with a need to change their ways They haven't changed their ways They have hired a PR firm to try to that "ie food is light Light means"There's one born every min- parent presumption that declaring something light or natural makes it so Food with "light" printed on the label won't clog your arteries The label is the antidote Meanwhile I await the study proving that grease does your body no - harm so long as you drink enough alcohol to dissolve it Bill Hall is a columnist and edit° rial page writer for the Lewiston Morning Tribune Idaho a Salt Lake Tribune group newspaper Skateboard show sports fashion By Valli Herman Los Angeles Daily News Writer LOS ANGELES — For the fashion-conscioskateboarder a new televig sion show may become as indispensable as grease "Some of the kids look like urban pirates" director Skip Peralta said of skateboarders on his show SK8-Ta new skateboarding series to be broadcast on the Nickelodeon cable network Yet even skateboarding has its factions no single look dominates nor will it on the show "Whatever guests we have on the show dress how they are So it's whatever is in at the moment" Peralta said Expect the unusual "I'm wearing a pair of pants right now that look like they could be a tablecloth or curtains" Peralta said The true skater style puts function over fashion You won't see manufacturers' fantasies foisted onto the savvy skateboarders Nor will names popular with skateboarding such as Vision skatewear show up "No one likes to wear giant names going down your leg" Peralta said The Nickelodeon show is broadcast at 6:30 pm Saturday with a repeat at 11:30 am Sunday ball-bearin- ute" "Light" means you can eat the food that you have same lard-lace- d always eaten but tell your pushy doctor and your nagging kids that you're looking after yourself: "I never buy anything but light foods" It's one of those magic words like "natural" If consumers start worrying about preservatives in their food you keep selling them the same pickled products with a shelf life of 14 years But you print "natural" on the label These tactics are based on the ap - itt'L' t'':4:-- ! 0 The ice cream store boasted that Its "light" ice cream is "93" percent ft to 14 1990 - I St t ' ' - - - ' 4 -- ' I "CI - 3:::'':l':::::t1:1''''':'-'::':- ‘-- i i ' ":i - 0 Kt G t'N I ? 3 tor - I: ::: (144'1'':( ' 1- ''' 4'! : ' " go '- — ''') 110 ' r '' ''''' - ' ''''''' T: 1 - - - A- - ' k'It'' ' :'''‘' - :A r::::':7::- '' 410 - ' z Phut ''''' ' - D —ec ' '''' i'l li ir '' ::::t72'::::''::lq::::'::'-':- ' '': ::::ii? - ' 1 :: :F 4:q : - ''' :: : ' ' :1 i'1 I i 1 ill 0v 1 ' 1 ot :: !:' 111:i 'i 111'1: ''4 Illit1:d 1: Introducing ORIGINS the natural beauty p 4441: 011'1:1 ':' I 4- ::: '''' 1H 11 '' ''' l'i - ''' 0"H:' ' ' p 'i1ii I i 11 ill ' l' 7 1::: ' ''7 '':Z::-'::- ?:yJ::ii:!:-: N f7 : y - - ' ' -- - ! !! 1I1114'14 11111i i itiv ' 1f 1 : -- 1 t t i 11:':-:-- iii11:11 1 i 4449!
