Amazing how loaded these things are. If I ate that Coldstone shake, I think I would just die.

 

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

WOW! Some of those came as a surprise.

That list started off well enough (that shake from Coldstone has pretty much my entire daily allotment for calories), but it seemed like they were getting desperate toward the end. "This food item is low in calories, high in protein, high in fiber, and seems pretty healthy, but it has ever so much sodium!!"
Ohmygod, how much sodium is it?
"As much as a couple slices of bacon!"

There's even a point in there where they said to choose one brand of trail mix over another because their choice had 4 less grams of fat.

I'm not going to defend Reese's Puff Cereal (I've never even had it before), but they literally said to avoid it because a bowl of Reese's Cereal in milk has slightly more sugar than a Reese's Cup. And then they recommended a peanut butter cereal with more calories per serving and the same amount of sugar as a Reese's Cup. If that's the kind of logic they're using, why not recommend just eating a Reese's Cup for breakfast?

I'll be honest, I don't give a Calvin about sodium levels. Some stuff it goes without saying that it'll be loaded. If you want peanut butter cereal, there's some new Cheerios that have the flavoring and are pretty good.

The shake et al like once a year wouldn't hurt. Moderation and extreme moderation in some cases is the key.

I know this is just me being a pedant, but how on Earth can someone be extremely moderate? That's like being incredibly credible.

Nothing surprising here except the Cold Stone shake. I might've knocked it out over a thousand calories, but not two. And nothing's that big of a deal to digest as long as you know how to work it into your diet. But chances are, you're going to have more to eat that same day you get the shake.

Some people may consider "moderate" to be once-a-month. TO cover for that, I say extremely moderate, which means yearly.

That's not what moderate-- I-- you--

"Moderation" means avoiding extremes. You can't extremely avoid extremes.

"Moderation" means infracting and banning baddies!

 

[Anita18]

Funny, I thought this thread would be about eating cinnamon from a spoon. Which is a definite no-no.

Also, I need that Coldstone PB+C shake. Definitely. If I don't gain weight on that, nothing's going to help me!

I imagine the large size would last me for a couple of days though.

 

[Schlosser85]

I was hoping this thread was about cannibalism or eating insects or something.

This was anti-climactic.

 

[Boom]

But I love VitaminWater !

Heck yes.

 

[SpideyFan866]

I know one thing you should never eat.....

Poop :P

Yeah, this thread is kind of bored. How about deciding between a Cold Stone shake with its gazillion calories and some fried locusts?

 

[Lasirius]

I've always wanted to try the P'zone. I'll still try it one day.

Something tells me...don't eat a mantis. Probably not good. Oh, poop might look nasty.

[Midnyte_Sun]

I've never had anything on that menu. But it did succeed in making me crave chicken alfredo!

 

[Lighthouse]

Oh damn, I've had the Grilled Shrimp Caprese many times. I knew it was bad, but not that bad.

[ComicChick]

[chaseter]

It can cure AIDS and stop the spread of the disease in it's present form.
