I'm certainly not overweight myself (73KG now and very fit)- but circa
2002 I got up to about 105KG, partially due to non-physical work, but
mainly a so-called 'healthy', fat-free diet.
Always used whole grains since I left home but still far too many
carbohydrates. I also discovered through going low carb that I have a
grain intolerance - so now I very rarely will eat anything with wheat
etc. *unless* the grains were sprouted first.

I have a theory (of sorts) that grains were man's first junk or
convenience foods. Apparently man only took to grains when other food
sources became scarce, and grains can be be stored and transported, which
is why it took off so well. We've only been eating grains for 10,000
years, which is a mere blink of an eye in real terms. Humans haven't
evolved to properly digest such things.

Perhaps you should do likewise.
Pay attention, and look a little closer...

Then again, that is irrelevant to your true objective here, so...

LOL! Oy. It appears that it was part of my OP ‹ but as a quotation of
someone else's words (a reader comment to the Strib's article). I took
umbrage because I knew I didn't "write that". When it was snipped, so
were the first quotation marks indicating the quotation.

I think I'll go poach some chicken.

Root-the-peg, which in my town was that you played mumblety-peg until
you lost and the winner had one chance to use the butt of the knife to
drive the peg further into the ground. The loser dug into the ground
with his teeth until he grabbed the peg and pulled it out. Town rules
dictated that the game was always played on grass. The older kid
generally won or wouldn't root the peg if he lost. The younger kid
always rooted it. Ah, those were the days.

You were up this way and didn't even let me know? I'm insulted! As
it is, Dunkin donuts has outsold every Tim Horton's, which is closing
some of the shops they opened around here, Starbucks, and they killed
Krispy Kreme in this area. Part of their strategy is to have a store
on every corner that is available, which is why there are 5 within a
mile radius of my house (at the mall, in the supermarket, on the
corner, in the gas station, etc.). I'm only surprised that there
isn't one in the prison complex!

I was in Boston a few years ago and it sunk in after a bit,
wow there are a lot of Dunkin Donuts around here. That was
around the time of the low carb phase. Seemed strange.
So I got a laugh when I was on the Duck Tour and the guide
said and there are 84 Dunkin Donuts in Boston!

Well, you're EATING it wrong! :-)

Inspired by the fact that Hawaiians seem to revere Spam, I'm going to try
this snack:

Cut about three ounces of Spam* into cubes and sauté in a medium-hot skillet
until barely browned. Open a can of coconut milk and heat it in a
quart-sized pot until steaming but not boiling. Add a slice of ginger (or
galangal, if you've got it) and some chile-garlic sauce. Stir occasionally.
Prepare a package of ramen, but don't use the "flavor" package. Drain the
ramen and add it to the coconut milk. Cut six ears of baby corn into
lengthwise slices. Add to the ramen, add the sautéed Spam, and stir gently
to combine.

I think that'll be my lunch tomorrow.

Bob
*I'll use low-sodium Spam. The other stuff is just way too salty for me.

So, you're saying that we should only eat giant brontosaurus ribs that tip
our cars over at the drive-in, just like they did back in good-old Bedrock?

I heartily endorse the all-meat diet they had back before man started
eating those nasty whole-grain junk foods! It was way more healthy for you,
after all.

As far as I saw, they have succeeded in blanketing the area.
One of the things I really wanted to eat back there was one of their
chocolate cake doughnuts. Didn't manage to.

Our much-heralded local Krispy Kreme, built from the ground up after a
Pizza Hut was demolished in a busy corner shopping area, lasted about a
year.

I had exactly one of their donuts which a neighbor brought by still
warm. I wasn't impressed, but then I don't like raised donuts.

OB "cooking": One of the most sinful things I have ever eaten in my
carefree younger days is a plain cake doughnut split like a bagel,
toasted lightly till crisp, and eaten spread with cream cheese. It's a
wonderful blend of flavors and textures, and almost pure fat. :-(

I worry about your arteries, boyo! :-)

My mom used to cook Spam by frying slices of it and I loved it when I was a
kid. But now, I just look at all those saturated fat and sodium grams and
think of all the pig snouts and pig buttholes and just ..... <shudder> A
little knowledge is indeed a dangerous thing. Somehow I manage to turn my
mind from such things when eating a hot dog at the ballpark though :-)))))

Regardless of what his posts are or are not like on any other newsgroup, it
seems to me that Jeßus' posts are largely on topic here. Far as I'm

I've read in many places that cutting calories in the diet increases
life span by a large percentage...

Haven't quite figured that one out yet, unless it's just preventing
obesity, but it's supposed to work for people of normal weight too.

So now that you see you mistake, don't you need to offer a couple
apologies? Or are you trying to claim "innocent newbie asshole"?

After I read Peter's post I pictured his wife with a choker and leash
around her neck. And bruises around her eyes.

I actually went so far as to make a SPAM-lite (25% less salt) and Summer
Sausage sandwich with provolone cheese and horseradish mayo yesterday
due to this thread.

I got 2/3rds of the way through it. I'm pretty much done with SPAM for
this decade and next.

Well, I guess she doesn't really mind because how would
she get by without his paycheck ... oh, wait, she's the one with
a job, never mind.

There weren't many fat kids in my elementary school. I can only think of
one. We were pretty active as kids. My mother used to kick us out of
the house to play every morning. We had a pretty long and invisible
leash. We went went for a lot of hikes, bicycle hikes, played baseball,
soccer, football. I don't think she knew where we were most of the time.
We had lots of god food to eat and ate as much as we wanted. However,
we did not have soft drinks.

That's sage, not oregano.

The only way I'll eat spam is on a pizza with pineapple, bbq sauce and
a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Louise likes it that way so I
make it for her once or twice a year. Otherwise I'd never touch the
stuff. Baking it seems to cut down on the dog food smell.

Yes, some guys just gotta have someone to beat up on
to make them feel big. Peter has his woman, and you
have RFC.
