Default Re: I wasn't going to do it...

Greetings Kate, and thanks for the rant. Let's get at it.



"The AHA's recommendations are sound" -Says who? You? The AHA? LOL If they are so sound, and if the ADA and AHA are the end all be all of dietary information, then why 1) are Americans more Obese than ever in the history of our nation since having implemented the Food Pyramid? (I assume you have read the NY Times article, at the very least ... if not, click here )

I think the anser to why Americans are obese is pretty simple. It's called McDonalds. It's called KFC. It's called Popeye's. It's called Haagen Dazs, Chocolate Brownie Overload, Pizza, Mr. Big, Bacon Double Cheese Burgers and French Fries. It's also called lazy. Were you really trying to imply that Americans got fat from fruit? I am laughing so hard right now I think I'm going to faint.

Your debating skills are evident, though obviously rusted through the years of inactivity you speak of.

Merry Christmas!
