I totally agree that all these diet fads coming and going completely harm human health and are a detriment to our society. I just wrote a book review on my site today about Eat Right 4 Your Blood Type, which I believe has some similarities to what you are trying to get across here on your site. Cheers! http://agriculturesociety.wordpress.com/2009/06/17/do-you-eat-right-for-your-blood-type-find-out/ Thanks for this post, Mark.

This means you can eat as much as you want, yet you don't put on weight.

It's no more or less faddish than a vegetarian diet. There is no dairy in this diet, the food is hoped to be locally grown and in season for your climate .. all sounds sensible to me. If a nation of people live naturally by the diet, how can you call it a fad? You’re wrong about the Macrobiotic diet causing deficiencies. It’s no more or less faddish than a vegetarian diet.

When he sat down to eat with others in usually posh restaurants, he would reach over and help himself to food from their plates... stabbing a piece of meat or something else he desired. Well, in your list of bad diet ideas, you mention the "chew don't swallow" routine and where it came from, its origins, I don't know, but Rocky liked meat, steak in particular, but spat out the meat residue after he thouroughly chewed it and swallowed the juice. Just imagine, if you can, eating dinner with a champion boxer who made himself welcome to your food, then ate meat and spat it out into a napkin. Quite a scene, but little anyone could say or do about it and keep their teeth. All factual too I think as this information was found in a old Sports Illustrated article on the champ.
