In Which I Make a Wise Spending Decision


I bumped into another article on what to do with your DNA once you have it in portable zip file format. (Well … more likely an algorithm looked at how my ancestry searches have slowed and it planted the article in Google or Facebook.)

I actually headed for Genopalate, which claimed it can look at my DNA and recommend what my wisest eating choices would be … which vegetables will be best for me, what proteins, and so on.

I got as far as looking up the price, and that’s where they lost me. Not because the price was too high, but because there was a President’s Day sale.

Really? A President’s Day sale? Is there just too much overstock and they need to clear out the warehouse of custom-generated reports? That sounded suspicious.

Then, since I was put off by the sale, I looked up some reviews and found people are not happy with Genopalate. “They said I should eat elk! Where am I supposed to find elk?”

I actually though about it and backed away from the web page. A wise decision for once.
