Even living       alone, being able to cook greatly increases quality of life. True, not       everyone has the privilege of the use of a kitchen. Home cooking gives       the satisfaction of having a meal made with love and as you like it. A       benefit often on my mind is the ability to omit certain things from the       ingredients. Often, affordable products contain unnecessary stuff, for       example a local store-brand flavored sparkling water has a preservative       (Sodium Benzoate) but it's just water! I was sent on an errand to find       cranberry sauce without corn syrup, for Thanksgiving. No grocery store       in my area carried that. They do sell raw cranberries, and it's fairly       easy to make home-made cranberry sauce. It's not health food, but it's       an example.              MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06               Title: Velowedge        Categories: Sandwiches        Yield: 1 Sandwich               Carrots; shredded        Onion; chopped        Green pepper; chopped        Cheddar or Muenster cheese        Alfalfa sprouts        Cucumbers; chopped        Mayonnaise; to taste               Mix equal parts of all ingredients except mayonnaise.
