You know they say that every 17 years, the cicadas that have been hiding in the ground,

all pop up and then they flourish for a while and then they hide again.

You know what I'm talking about?

Well, the same thing is true in the world of nutrition, except it's not cicadas, it's

So here's Chuck.
