PROMOTING EXCELLENCE IN THE AMERICAN ECONOMY--NOT JUST JOBS, BUT JOBS INVOLVING A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT IS TRULY EXCELLENT

In response to United States President Donald Trump's many statements about seeking to create more jobs inside this country:

WOULDN'T IT ALSO MAKE SENSE TO DO MORE TO PROMOTE EXCELLENCE IN THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES THAT COMPANIES IN THE UNITED STATES ACTUALLY MANUFACTURE OR OFFER?

One fine example of this, I realized this Friday night, is the Boar's Head-brand "Kalmata Olive Tapenade" hummus.

Eating Greek olives is very good for your cardiovascular health. And this product is truly delicious, I noted with pleasure tonight inside the kitchen of my apartment unit.

I also like the fact that according to the New York City-based distributor of this tasty hummus item, one serving of Kalmata Olive Tapenade Hummus contains 3 grams of monosaturated fats, 1.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat, and only 0.5 gram of saturated fat. All of that helps to explain why this is a heart-heathy brand of hummus.

This hummus product contains no cholesterol, the Nutrition Facts label on the container also points out.

Another convincing response to President Trump's heavy emphasis on jobs per se in the United States can be found in a delicious and healthful food product from Canada that I recently tasted for the first time that I can currently recall.

If lots of Americans purchase this Canadian food product, I feel very confident that a beneficial "multiplier benefit" to the economy will occur in both Canada and in the United States---Canada's only neighboring nation to the south.

This Canadian food product is called "WowButter" and is being marketed as a cited alternative to "peanut butter" in which "whole toasted soy" is the leading ingredient.

Advantages to this soy butter being manufactured in the Canadian province of Ontario include:

---9 grams of polyunsaturated fat per serving.

---7.5 grams of Omega-6 per serving.

---1.5 grams of Omega-3 per serving.

---0 milligrams of cholesterol per serving..

---only 8 grams of carbohydrates per serving..

---4 grams of dietary fiber per serving.

---only 100 milligrams of sodium per serving.

---only 4 grams of sugar per serving.

----7 grams of protein per serving.

----contains in each serving 6 percent of the U.S. Government-recommended minimum daily quantity of iron.
