you do know that if youre on the Atkins diet,your brain doesnt get the carbs it needs,which can be very bad.That's why I voted for stupid. I also think it's a fad. It's a stoopid fad. I eagerly await that study too, Achilles. Hopefully, such "real" evidence would help us talk sense into people for whom common sense isn't enough... Lipids, starches, and saccharides are all burned as fuel. If you eat more than your body knows what to do with, you get fat. Humans have been eating carbs for longer than they've been human, so carbs have become important because we evolved eating them. I hope this thread gets through to someone and benefits them.
Foamy says it loud 'N clear with one of his rants. I like his advice to those seeking external validation. Warning: Don't click if you have a problem with some "forbidden" words. I think "misguided fools" would be more accurate than "@$$holes" or "fat bastards", though.
Edit:
For those who've seen the cartoon: I just remembered that I ate something today called a "sundae cone", which came on a waffle cone.
