THE FATTEST PEOPLE IN RESTAURANTS ARE EATING SALADS.

I just saw Gary Taubes, author of ”What if it’s all been one big fat lie” take apart (not merely mild sparring—literally decimate) two doctors on Charlie Rose (who is recovering from heart surgery).  One of the doctors was the head of the American Heart Association.  Personally, I believe Gary.  It has always been my contention that eating high fat makes me feeeeel better.  It also helps me keep off the pounds and keep my ”numbers” in the excessively healthy category (I remember sitting in a room of extremely fit people in a mandatory ”health” program at USAFA and getting my numbers disclosed to the class—the doctor said, and I quote verbatim: ”you have the worst diet but you are the healthiest person here.  This is really strange.” [John Robb’s Radio Weblog]
