[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so hot outside, the last couple of days are brutal, but when you see what people are ordering in any given place it is hair raising. 
Tons of breads, starches, gluten heavy foods and they load on them. Not everyone of course but many do and then the same people seem to leave the place holding their belly with both hands massaging it gently like they carry a baby and they waddle outside the place into the heat. What is the next step I wonder.. ER?

Why it is not a common knowledge that in hot heat and humid foods to limit or avoid altogether for the time of the extreme heat are:
- starches.. rice.. potatoes..
- gluten .. pastas.. breads.. 
- salty foods
- salt
- meat
[b]- spicy food[/b]

Feel free to add to the list and add foods that are good and light.

Have you met Mexico? Or any temperature-hot country? :lol:[/quote]

Or India? Or SE Asia? Or parts of Africa?

I'm going to guess OP is white. Very white. Because they are clueless about the climates and cuisines of places that aren't European. [/quote]

I'm guessing she's from an Eastern European country where women chain smoke, nibble on bland food, and drink vodka.

I couldn't tell you what other people eat at restaurants because I don't notice...or care...or judge. [/quote]
Hey.. insult OP all you want, but I am pp from Yugoslavia and lived in Africa... I live off of spicy food, we eat hot peppers(not me allergic but everyone else), we don't drink no vodka, sljivovica and Irish Whiskey if we are being posh! My kids' first solid food was spicy chicken curry. I love, love as do my kids and dh spicy food, I add Tabasco and everything and my kids think Sriracha is ketchup!(ok, but jokes aside, people in Yugoslavia do eat spicy food more than other Eastern Europeans that I've met(so just speaking for those I know) and even in my country we are an anomaly, bland food sucks so, so much!)[/quote]

You are the one who is insulting. I’m Eastern European and Yugoslavia isn't a country. The former Yugoslavia works, but don’t insult the rest of us easteen Europeans. [/quote]
OK. Sorry, I am from former Yugoslavia, I was just joking. Do you eat spicy food in your country of origin? Do you forgive me?[/quote]

If it was a country when you were there, it’s fine to say Yugoslavia. I don’t get people sometimes. [/quote]

In America, we don't tell people how they refer to their ancestral motherland. But we do apparently fat shame (let's be clear: that's the real purpose of the original post). Carry on. [/quote]
