Speaking for myself, I am not blind, deaf or dumb. Not even going any further on this thread. |
I agree that the word holistic has very little meaning and is overused, and is used more as a marketing ploy that can mislead consumers. Rather than learn about nutrition, consumers looks for words like organic and holistic, and believe me, this is a huge pet peeve of mine. However, I don't think anyone was discussing holistic foods. When I was speaking of blind loyalty, it was to address Yorkiemom's reply, "If RC changes their ingredients to "organic road kill" or "fresh mown alfalfa" or "calcium enriched barnicles", or even "koi pond green alge", as long as my dogs love it, eat it, and THRIVE on it, and I do not have to eat it, it will work for me!". If that isn't blind loyalty, I don't know what is.
