One Habit You Should Stop Doing, It Could Save Your Life

It's not very often talked about, but there is one habit you should stop doing because it could actually save your life! This was so important that it popped up on The Mike & Carla Morning Show this morning. It was about picking your nose and the long term ramifications...that it can actually might lead to Alzheimer's.

It all started with a story about Mike O'Brian's youngest grandson Mikey, who is only 3. During a recent FaceTime call, "Papa" asked Mikey if he was picking his nose? He responded with a very confident "yeah!" Just owning up to it, which was very honest and cute at the same time. This morning, Morty told the story of what his uncle told him as a small child about picking his nose. That's when all hell broke loose on the show.

It was be safe to say that Carla Rea was actually the voice of reason on this believe it or not. In fact, she looked up what could actually happen if you do this on a consistent basis. According to what she read in a medical journal, the long term affects are not good! Thank God Morty's mom walked in to find what was going on and set little Morty on the straight and narrow.

But will all this said, it still doesn't prevent people from doing it! Along with sitting too close to the tv or the best one this morning regarding hemorrhoid's. A listener texted in that his father had told him and his siblings that sitting on cold pavements would be the cause of hemorrhoids! Not one to argue with his father, they never sat on cold pavement again. But they did have to ask, "...what's a hemorrhoid?" 

All listeners were texting in with things their parents had told them that weren't true. Take a couple of minutes and listen to the segment for yourself...and enjoy!

Ever catch yourself secretly craving those comfort foods from your childhood? Eating habits are a fundamental aspect of our daily lives, reflecting our culture, upbringing, and personal preferences. It's natural for children to have unique and sometimes unconventional eating habits. But it’s interesting to know that there are adults who proudly embrace eating like children. Gravitating towards what some might call "childish meals.” These people, unapologetically, opt for the comforting and familiar flavors of childhood, turning to dishes that might make a Michelin-star chef raise an eyebrow.

One reason adults may adopt childlike eating habits is the comfort of familiarity. Many of us have fond memories of childhood meals and snacks, and for some, replicating these flavors can provide a sense of nostalgia and security. Whether indulging in a favorite cereal or enjoying a classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich, these comfort foods can offer a brief escape from the complexities of adult life.

In times of stress or challenges, these dishes offer a sense of security and ease, like a cozy blanket for the palate. The preparation and consumption of childish meals are straightforward and hassle-free.

After a demanding day, adults may go for dishes that require minimal effort and decision-making. Adulting can be overwhelming at times, with its responsibilities, stressors, and expectations. Eating like a child can serve as a temporary escape from these pressures. It's a way to rebel against the constraints of adulthood, if only for a moment. In a world that often demands seriousness and discipline, indulging in playful and carefree eating can be a form of self-care.

Interestingly, eating like a child can also be a social activity. It might serve as a bonding experience among friends or family members, creating a shared sense of nostalgia. This behavior can be especially prevalent at themed parties, where adults gather to relive their childhoods through food and games.

Food preferences are highly subjective. Some adults simply enjoy the taste and texture of these childhood dishes, regardless of any deeper motivations. Personal taste plays a significant role in meal choices.

Dishes like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, mac 'n' cheese, or chicken tenders offer comfort, memories, and a connection to the past. So, when you see someone enjoying their favorite childhood meal, remember it's more than just food. It’s a reminder that simple joys are often the best.

Take a look at these go-to meals for adults who eat like children.

Gooey, cheesy, and served with a side of warm nostalgia, mac 'n' cheese has an enduring appeal for many adults. Its simplicity and comfort make it a beloved choice among those who eat like children. Plus, it's easy to make or dump out of a box into a pot.

The classic combination of creamy peanut butter and sweet jelly or jam between two slices of bread is a timeless favorite. It's a simple pleasure that resonates with adults seeking a taste of their carefree days. A sweet and nutty symphony that satisfies the kid in you with refined taste.

Crispy chicken tenders paired with seasoned fries provide a satisfying and familiar meal. Their widespread availability makes them a reliable choice for those moments when you're not sure what to order. This childhood classic still holds a special place in the hearts (and palates) of adults who appreciate its uncomplicated goodness.

Sloppy Joe's are messy and fun to eat. An explosion of ground beef, onions, peppers, and a tangy tomato sauce that's so messy, you'll need a bib (or a sense of adventure). Enjoy it piled high on a fresh brioche bun, and embrace the chaos as you bite into this wild and wonderfully messy delight.

Many adults grew up eating cereal as a staple breakfast or snack. It brings back fond memories of childhood mornings and simple, carefree times. Cereal is incredibly convenient. It requires minimal preparation too. Just pour it into a bowl, add milk, and you're good to go. This makes it an attractive option for busy adults. And it comes in a wide range of flavors and types, from sugary classics to healthier options.

Mini pizza bagels often bring back fond memories of childhood lunches or after-school snacks. Many adults have a nostalgic attachment to them, making them a comforting choice. The combination of soft bagels, savory sauce, gooey cheese, and toppings provides a delightful mix of textures and flavors that appeal to a wide range of tastes.
