European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - February 6, 1989, Darmstadt, Hesse The stars and stripes Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i Don t know what your Choles Terol level is but even if you Are not among the thousands of us who Are stuffing ourselves without bran muffins and exercising like mad to reduce our Levels Hope you will help us pressure the food Industry to quit sabotaging our efforts. We do understand that fats arean essential part of a healthy diet but we also understand that the Palm and Coconut oils used to extend shelf life Are hazardous tour health. You might als9 Tell the food Industry that we Are the shoppers they will find in the aisles of supermarkets Reading the ingredients listed on their products. Whence see the dreaded words Palm or Coconut Oil we will put the product right Back on the shelves. Little people like us have a hard time getting the giants of Industry to listen but i believe when Ann Landers Speaks they will listen. For years we have been Loyal to respected High Quality Brand names and now they have a Chance to show their concern for us by eliminating Palm an Coconut oils from their products. When they do this we will once again be Loyal totem. Cholesterol conscious Dearcy in Salado Texas it is a Well known fact that saturated fats elevate the cholesterol level in the blood and an excess of cholesterol can clog the arteries and Lead to a heart attack. The Keebler company recently announced that it will no longer be using animal fats and tropical oils in its products. Hooray for Keebler and now How about about the rest of you please show us you care dear Ann Landers i am the Mother of a 3-year-old, so naturally i a Friendly with women who have children of the same age. A Young Mother i la Call her Delia allows her 3-year-old to answer the Telephone. The child says who is this i la say hello Brian this is mrs. A. Let me speak to your depending on the child s mood he will either Callis Mother or hang up. Yesterday Brian Hung up on me twice. When i saw Delia later that evening i told her Thatcher son had Hung up on me twice that Day and that i am sure she misses some important Calls because he probably hangs up on others As Well. She replied Well what can i do if he wants to do something he does it. If i say you can t answer the phone he screams until he gets his i am so annoyed by Delia s attitude that i have decided not to phone her again. Will you comment on this please South Carolina Reader dear Reader for openers a 3-year-old should not be answering the phone. It is not a toy. I feel sorry for that child. He has already Learned that the Way to get what he wants is to scream. That youngster is sure to be spoiled Rotten a pain in the to others and a problem to himself.
