Tuna
Eggs
Cottage Cheeze
Rice
Pasta
Fruit
Vegetables
Chicken
Beef

I could go on......The problem is if someone only likes sugary shit, he will that is the only thing available.

If you want something sweet use Dextrose, Maltodextin or Stevia.

Aquapython already covered this, so yea.

101, dude, I thought you were supposed to be some sort of nutrition expert...you mean to tell me you didn't already know this stuff?

The government is not responsible for making rules and laws to protect you from yourself. You have the information, you can control what goes in your body. If you think it's a serious health risk, then don't consume it. Pretty simple.

Amen brother!

IMO, corn is a bigger source of health problems in America than Tobacco. Corn subsidies are out of control and like Prtcl said, EVERYTHING has fucking corn in it...even the meat you eat (unless you buy from a small farm or something).

Colbert actually did a bit about this the other day, showed some cat litter that is now made from 100% corn. "In America we have so much food we let our pets shit on it."

Check out "Food Inc." They have it on Netflix streaming, if you didn't already know where you food comes from you're not going to like what you see.

I've seen Food Inc. a couple of times. It's a good doc.

AquaPython · 03-24-2010, 11:23 AM

you guys see King Corn? it is more about the food bill and corn industry from start to finsh. Food inc is a bit broader and covers a bunch of other subjects within the food industry that also needs to be addressed.

i stopped eating that bullshit in college so it was not hard for me. In fact, i never even loved it as a kid. But there are some chemicals in that crap that make it addicting , just like a drug, when you eat enough of it. When you get off of it long enough, and you pass one with a window down, the stench of it makes you sick.

ever see Super- Size Me ? the guy goes on a nothing-but-McDonalds binge for 1 month around the country. he nearly died.

Funny, how I get laughed at for talking about ingrediants and healthy eating, and then I come to this thread where people are making more extreme diet recommendations than I ever have

BTW, potatoes are not "bad" for you unless you're a sedentary person who never exercises, in which case they can lead to weight gain because they're fast-burning carbs. Sweet potatoes on the other hand, don't burn nearly as fast, and are actually quite good for you.
