Green mint jelly = yuck! Convenience foods belong in a convenience. FRESH mint sauce is NOT jelly-like, glutinous goo from a bottle. Okay, this is an official complaint that this stream is OFF-TOPIC.

I suspect Prozac consumption is directly proportional to the proportion of convenience foods eaten by people. Supermarkets are barely representative of food these days. They are predominantly variations of sugar, fat/oil, salt, flour and some flavouring and colouring.

There is the soft-drink aisle = sugar, water and flavouring.
Biscuits aisle = flour, butter, sugar, cocoa.
Bread aisle = flour, sugar, salt, yeast.
Cereals aisle = flour, sugar, salt and 150 grains! [Chocolate flavoured sugar-bombs]
Booze aisle = sugar, [rotted to form ethanol]
Fruit and vegetables = plastic models of the real thing. [Genetically modified food is nothing new]
Meat aisle = growth hormones in battery-farmed nearly dead animals fed on sawdust and month old frozen fish.
Eggs = colouring [not very much of that!], albumin, and the left out the flavouring additives.

Eat that, then go to work [in a battery hen cubicle] to be creative, drive home in a battery hen car in a traffic jam, watch Jerry Springer, eat Viagra, then a sleeping pill, then do it again next day. Oh, maybe exercise on an exercycle [fat chance!] fat being the operative word.

Pass the Prozac!

There must be more to life.

PS: There is! Orano orange juice, Fresh schnapper, corn picked from the garden and of course the Piha Wave Function with a deep blue sky, with a sun which is intense. Maybe I shouldn't moan.
