*facepalm* (but oh, how I love this thread)
I believe I read something recently that said close to 100% of Kashi's stuff is GMO? It might've been an alternate universe, I'll admit, 'cause... WTF?

Dang, really? Where? They do terrific marketing, then! O_o

Not an alternate universe at all (1/4 second on google tells me so...)

Banging. Head. On. Desk.

Quoted from a forum where I'm encouraging someone to knock bread and pasta on the head, the chap below is promoting wholemeal versions of them.

Nonsense. The 'carbs are the devil' mob really get on my tits, there is genuinely nothing wrong with eating carbs at all, aslong as they are good carbs they are essential especially if you are going to take up any sort of serious exercise programme.

Well damn, it's good to know I need to be fat and bloated to exercise properly! I've been doing it wrong all this time.

I love carbs. I could eat all of the bananas.

No! Hands off my bananas!

First I gotta share my potatoes with Sigi, now I have to share my bananas...grumble.

Anyone who tries to take my cherries (no, not like that, get your head out of the gutter), apples, and squash away can rot in hell.

Unbelievably I hadn't eaten a fresh cherry in my life until July this year. I've given up fruit for a while and your post has me dreaming about them!

The thread I'm involved in gets better and better. Try this one for size!

When I'm on a healthy eating phase my day of eating looks something like this:

Breakfast - Bowl of Syrup porridge with semi-skimmed milk

Lunch - Toast n' Beans with 50/50 bread (thick) and half a tin of WW beans

Dinner - Wholewheat pasta, chicken and a tomato based sauce

Snacks - a Curly Wurly with my dinner and a cereal bar with my lunch.

There are clearly lots of carbs in that diet, yet I can still lose 5lbs in a week even if I'm not exercising. That's me as a standard 6'2, 13 stone 37 year old.

You'd lose even more if you were a fatty, so I don't understand why everyone is so anti carbs these days.

*snort* umm... first... is that WEIGHT WATCHERS beans!? WTF!? that alone is a *facepalm*
and yes, you can lose weight with lots of carbs when you eat such a small amount of food and starve your body of protein/fat (I would be SO HUNGRY with that food in a day, and I'm nearly a foot shorter)... "healthy eating phase" my @$$!
