They "suspect" the dietary fat and cholesterol. Roll Eyes

Now, I wonder why THAT would be?! LOL

Same old same old... It'll never end, will it? Mad

Hmmm, they forgot to mention the sugar in the headline.   Roll Eyes   Imagine that.....a diet high in fat and sugar is unhealthy.  Who would have guessed?   LOL

Oh no, it couldn't be the sugar.  (sarcasm alert) Haven't you seen the new commercials telling us how safe HFCS is for us.

Yes, I have seen those new commercials.  It's made from corn, which is a grain, so it must be healthy.  And it's nutritionally the same a table sugar, which we know is harmless.  Roll Eyes

How about the new Splenda, with fiber added?  Good grief!

Jeff-  I know.  They (the mainstream "experts") annoy the heck out of me some days.   It is all the same... make sure to get in several servings of grains, and all that milk to protect your bones, just as long as you cut down on the red meat and eggs.  Have a lowfat cookie.  (It makes steam come out of my ears... a funny sight indeed ) Livid

Heather-  HaHa.  Great minds think alike, right?  Or is it just those of us who chose to take that red pill?
