I used to eat donuts and animal cookies. But I noticed that I couldn't think worth diddly afterwards, and my eyes were bloodshot.
It turns out that eating a lot of sugar (or fat) puts a lot of sugar or fat in the blood, which causes the red blood cells to clump together. The clumpy RBCs had a hard time squeezing through my capillaries (bloodshot eyes) and delivering oxygen (like, to my brain!). No wonder I felt stupid afterwards!
Now I choose mostly unrefined foods, and I don't miss the brain sags.

... do certain body parts shrivel from a lifetime diet of Ho-ho's and beacon flavored marshmallows?

Possibly. But it gets hard to find them beneath all the parts that *don't* shrivel...

They are so so so spoilt having all these fast food joints.
All this talk of pizzas and tacos etc makes me feel not only hungry but undernourished. Oh well
Unless anyone has a better suggestion, I will cry myself to program

You call pizza and tacos nourishment?

Pizza can be healthy, but not the meat-covered grease-soaked bread most pizza places try to pass off for pizza. (Same goes for tacos.) I like my pizza on whole wheat bread, easy on the cheese (by most people's standards), with lots of olives, mushrooms, and peppers, and sometimes pineapple or red onion. :yum:

Well, just keep in mind that eating too many carbs is a great way to stay fat unless you're physically active that is.
[edit] But yeah, you're right. There are some things we can do to make our food enjoyable and better for us. [/edit]

Yup. Only, no cooked food. Sounds good doesn't it?

Pizza and Coke don't go together well. In fact, Coke doesn't go well with anything but rum, though Pepsi is quite versatile. Pizza, pasta, enchiladas and tacos, In 'N Out cheeseburgers, beef steaks, beer, and chocolate - these are a few of the simple things that make life worth living. Oh, and ice cream...
Healthy eating is for wimps. You don't make a muscle stronger by pampering it; you don't get any smarter by letting your brain relax. The way to build a strong body is to stress it, challenge it with progressively more difficult situations. If it needs protein, give it starch. If it needs vitamins, give it carbohydrates. It will figure out how to make what it needs from what it's given, or die trying.

I had an EKG done at my last physical - no worries. Oh, and the doc told me to gain some weight and get more cholesterol.;P

EKG?? I looked this up on google and it links it to ECG (ElectroCardioGram) but I couldn't see what the difference was.
I'm getting my annual ECG done in September. One time, when I was about 10 or 11 the woman (an adult) who went in before me was screaming. I don't know why and neither did the nurses - they couldn't figure out what upset her. It was one of those metal electrodes that they create a vacuum to hold it on with and they are a little cold sometimes but nothing to scream about. The modern plastic ones that they put gel on are a little nicer, but they still tingle a little when they are removed. I think because of the fuss that the previous woman had made I got a prize for being so good - It was the first and last time that happened.

ECG is correct, but for some reason I've always heard it called an EKG. Silly, isn't it?

I believe that is what the show "Emergency" always said. Of course several times a show.
I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.

Not at all. EKG is the name for it in Swedish.

Pizza and Coke don't go together well
Beer, OTOH, goes well with everything, especially more beer.

That is so true! Personally, I'm happy if the food doesn't bite back. A few whacks around the ears, some salt purely as an indulgence, and down the hatch it goes!

I'm trying with granite.
Honestly, I think eating is for whimps.
