"Meat dishes contain a relatively small amount of beef, chicken or pork, thinly sliced or finely shredded, mixed with fresh vegeta- bles. Cream and butterfat aren't used in Chinese cook- ing, and the amounts of oil are minimal.

"When most people think of a natural food restaurant, they think the food must taste like sawdust. It's sim- ply not true. Natural foods can taste as gourmet, I think even more so, as any other type food. The real dif- ference is at Healthy Jones for instance, we use whole wheat flour instead of white flour and honey instead of sugar, both foods giving you a lot more nutritional value. We never use chemi- cals, nitrates, preservatives, salt, artifi- cial coloring or flavoring or anything that we feel to be harmful to our health. There is more and more evidence pointing to the fact that these chemicals are harmful. Don't let the words natural food scare you. It's a start of thinking in the right direction towards better health and energy. The cast of `They're Play- ing Our Song,' currently at the Fisher Theater, has been into Healthy Jones several times. This talented group tells me they have been all over the country and rank ,Healthy Jones as the best 'natural food res- taurant and health food store they have been to. "That_really makes me feel good as we hope to go nationwide some day and their words are very encouraging. I keep finding the people who are the mov- ers and doers all take very good care of _themselves by eating -natural foods, excer- cising and taking a lot of vitamins. I feel it's the only way to go. Hope all of you start to feel that way too." IN THE MARCH, 1980 edition of Cosmopolitan, Emily Greenspan writes about "The Chinese Con- nection: How to Order More Than Chow Mein." "A few years ago, the mayor of New York got a yen for Chinese food and headed for one of the best Chinese restaurants in the city. 'Chicken chow mein,' ordered Hizonner.
