Absolutly not.
But we all have "food programming". This makes me skinny. This makes me fat. This gives people heart disease. This will increase my attention span. This will make me more spiritual. etc, etc.

So be aware of your programming around food. If you can lighten up a little on it, you will be able to eat a wider variety of things without the side effects listed above. (you can choose to be more conscious, not the food makes me more conscious) Be very wary of this though. This programming is a form of denial and denial is a very slippery beast and you can think you've liberated yourself from the programming but you've really got yourself in deeper.
