Absolute nonsense. It doesn't exactly take someone with a
Ph.D. in nutritional science to realize that a diet high
in carbs and fats is a bad idea. You obviously don't
realize it, but every national fast food chain now offers
several perfectly healthy items on its menu. For example,
Wendy's and McDonalds both offer a line of different
salads which are very healthy if eaten without the high
fat dressing. They also offer grilled chicken sandwhiches
and yogurt. Anyone on a diet can find something to eat at
most fast food places these days so painting fast food
restaurants as some evil agency simply flies in the face
of reality.

I think it all comes down to sensible eating. If you eat
sensibly eating some junk food sometimes isn't going to harm
you. I'm glad to have the choice to order something
healthier from a fast food restaurant though. It just seems
like most people either lack the sense or lack the willpower
to do this IMO.

I'm not lactose intolerant but I have friends that are.
I was wondering the same thing, Nancy. I wonder how they
work. I might serve 'em up as appetizers next time I
have them over for Fettucini Alfredo.

If I take one or two Lactaid pills I can have a serving
of whipped cream.

A big serving or do you still have to watch your intake?
One of my friends that is lactose intolerant loves ice
cream. I didn't realize how acute this condition can be
until I was stuck with him one afternoon when he polished
off a triple scoop of mocha almond fudge. He got very sick
to his stomach and had the most horrible gas. I'm not
kidding, I had to leave the car.

You have to match the number of pills to the amount of dairy
you're eating... but as long as you get it right they work
wonders! You're supposed to take the pills at the same time
as the dairy too, or they won't work - my problem is that I
forget them sometimes!

I bought the double-strength lactaid and I use one tablet
for an ordinary amount of dairy, and two for a real
indulgence... even if they don't entirely eliminate the
problem because I've had more lactose than the pills can
cope with, they still help cut it down. I'm not as
intolerant as your friend though, not by a long shot! He
might want to try four... 🙂

Nancy, I own a few shares of Seven Eleven, and I'm beggin
you to buy a Big Gulp. Please. Do it for me.

Okay, and while you're at it, consider buying a hotdog
shaped hamburgers and spread plenty of Heinz Ketchup on it.
After all, doing so will enhance the value of the few dozen
shares I own in Heinz. 🙂
