What is the deal with Low Fat?????

Right,

I LOVE ICE CREAM,

.....and butter, and milk, and any other confection that i can get my hands on. My roomie and I have survived on nothing but jars and jars of this stuff for weeks (breakfast and the occasional lunch):



Ok, lets face it people. When we eat confection, its for personal enjoyment. We simply melt into that feel good feelings that overwhelm ourselves with every bite (sound a bit like a cadbury ad here).

I honestly do not see the point of going low fat, or low sugar or whatever new low thing that has hit the local candy shops. Its downright criminal. You're going to eat something that's so obviously had zero nutritional value, why lie to yourself and pretend its healthy by making it low in something?

that being said, i am so tempted to launch a hate campaign against the following products:


What is th deal with this????? Its much more expensive that Coke Original and it tastes like crap. I mean, you buy a damn coke and you expect it to be healthy???

The chaps at coca-cola got it right with vanilla coke. I am one of those folks who love that stuff. You pay more for it...cos they give you damn vanilla!!!

This on the other hand....this low sugar rip off.......

I do know i have supporters out there, enlightened souls who share my views on Coke Zero. I bought a coke and took it into the labs the other day with a few friends of mine. There was this phycisist in the lift we took and the conversation went along these line:

Friend One: Bro, why not try Coke Zero....?


Me : Dude, you're talking to a full cream milk guzzling machine. Now why on earth would i feel guilty from drinking coke and try to hide that by drinking that zero stuff?

Friend One: I dunno, cos its healthier?


Me : Since when is Coke healthy? I mean, i buy the stuff to enjoy myself, why
deny myself the full package, sugar and all...for an additional 20 cents?


Physicist : *wide grin*


SEE! SEE! Physicists support me!!!!!!





Curse the dude who came up with this stuff. Come on people, milk is good as it is....why on earth do u want to reduce its fat content? Its already naturally balanced and is a healthy source of calcium. Its as criminal as this:


Bloody idiots think they can replicate mother's milk. Same case as with natural milk. Don't bloody tamper with it and make it low fat, high calcium and such. I mean, come on, it tastes better full fat and it makes a perfect cuppa.

You want to be healthy?

Stop using bloody condensed milk in your coffee or ideal milk. Instead use good old fashioned cold FULL FAT, CREAM milk! And may i add, its cheaper than the low fat stuff....and tastes much better.


Same case with these:

the utmost cardinal sin has got to be done by folk who substitute this:

with this crap:

I mean, yeah, margarine is crap. Its unhealthy for god's sake (its saturated not unsaturated lipids) and it tastes worse. I absolutely hate it when people use it in cakes instead of good old butter.

The Wrap Up


Let me get one thing straight here. Its not all about low fat and low sugar and such. Its all about control. You want to indulge yourself, go ahead with the full sugar and fat stuff. The important thing here is not to overeat the stuff.

There'e no point in purchasing low fat/low sugar/low whatever stuff on health grounds if it only means you're going to consume lots of it. Do enjoy, and go the full 9 yards, but control it.


AND FOR GOD'S SAKE DON'T SUB BUTTER FOR MARGERINE. I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU IF YOU DO.


Cheers !
