[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What is wrong with it being a carb bomb? I don't see any issue with it being carb-heavy food. What makes it unhealthy if there is no added sugar? I don't get it.[/quote]

IF we do every get warnings on food in this country, hopefully they won't be determined by DCUM food police who think carbs should be banned from everyone's diet because they personally, do not eat anything but water, vegetables and lean protein.

My DD worked at a popular chain salad place in McLean and witnessed parents telling their kids that they couldn't have a spoonful of sliced strawberries in their salad because it is too much sugar and will make them fat.  I once posted that I have oatmeal and berries for breakfast daily and got responses like "I would never eat dessert for breakfast!"  I guess oats are just bad in any form.  Time to remove the labels that say that oats are good for reducing cholesterol and replace with an "OMG CARBS" label.[/quote]
Geez! Oats are totally great! Filling, delicious, and not too many calories either! It is like the eating culture is that of extremes. Eat nothing. or eating everything is a sight! I have no idea what the effects are not kids of eating no fruit and what does eating some fruit and sugar later does to them? I mean if they have no sugar at all, do they end up in a sugar diabetic comma when they eat a cookie at friends' house? Do they start binging on sugar when older?
Bread and carbs and oats are delicious! So is rice and potatoes and well, carbs are truly awesome. Don't eat cookies after cookie and 7 loaves of bread per day... but surely nobody thinks bread gives you diabetes?[/quote]
