I mentioned to a coworker that my preference is to work out in the morning, in a fasted state, and then get breakfast afterwards. And that, depending on my schedule on a particular day, I might not have breakfast if it's not a workout day, and then just eat lunch when I get around to it. Terror in her eyes, she implored that I don't do that, because it's extremely dangerous, and I was liable to collapse at a moment's notice, and would require immediate medical attention.
There was also that time that my aunt made non-fat (or low-fat, don't remember) chocolate lava cake, and another aunt of mine goes "Oh cool, so now you can have it!"
Uh...that's not how this works....

(After a coworker asked why I wasn't eating the bread that came with my salad and I briefly explained that i don't eat bread and a tiny bit about why)
Him: We'll what do you do for peanut butter and jelly?
Me: I don't eat it.
Him: What are you, a communist?!?

On the news this morning:
McDonalds is rolling out a "healthier" (according to CBS) egg McMuffin - they ditched the yolk and the english muffin is now whole grain. The canadian bacon will also be extra lean.
So now it will not only BE crap, but it will TASTE like crap, too.
Seriously, that's just pathetic.

If only they would offer a double yolk version! (I know, they are probably pouring it out of a carton, not cracking an egg. Still, one could dream.) I have eaten those in a pinch (tossing the muffin) and egg, Canadian bacon, with cheese is a nice little on-the-road snack.

My mom worked for MD's for a while and said that (at the time anyways-about 6 years ago) they actually used real eggs

They use cracked eggs for the McMuffins (the "grill poached" eggs where there's actually a yolk and a white), but liquid or powdered eggs for everything else (liquid vs. powdered depends on the type of egg/sandwich, and I can't remember right now).
I've always preferred the McD's mcmuffin eggs over any other fast food breakfast eggs...

Two things happened today that made me struggle to keep my mouth shut.
1) At Starbucks as I waited for my chai latte (made with cream) to be made, a woman's order came out: "iced caramel macchiato, extra caramel". The woman asked, "Nonfat milk, right? And double the caramel?" :eek:
2) Overhearing a coworker telling another coworker that she's no longer eating "unhealthy garbage"; instead she purchased a meal replacement powder she's drinking twice daily. :confused:
