Healthy eating....or so we thought....

We're in the process of getting rid of stuff we either don't need or forgot we have. Sue found some long forgotten trinkets in this old container.

To summarize for you younger folks, the sequence went like this. Butter was bad for you, margarine was a healthier alternative (at the time supposedly), margarine got replaced with this stuff (see pics), and now I think the healthy choice is once again butter.

It's a deal where what's old becomes new again, kind of like how Sue wore Ray Ban sunglasses in the early '70s, only to have people like the Kartrashian's wear them like they discovered them for the first time. Hilarious. Just wait, bell bottomed corduroys will become the next "new" thing to be discovered.

Anyway, look at the ingredients of this slime. I remember using this stuff 30 or 40 years ago. Yuck!

I can't find corduroy pants. I USED to have several pairs.
 
I used to wear BELL BOTTOMED corduroys!

Scott
Pretty sure we all rocked those. Sometimes with chuka boots.

I don't recall those.

Scott
You are too old then..............hahahahaha............just kidding. The new chuka boots are not like the kind we had early 1970s. These were for dress, not casual as this says, but we were mostly barefoot.

"The chukka boot’s popularity continued to grow throughout the 1960s and 1970s, becoming a staple in the wardrobes of fashion icons and everyday individuals alike. The boot’s versatility allowed it to be styled with a wide range of outfits, from tailored trousers to jeans and everything in between."

Hasn't it, and isn't it still raising LDL like most saturated fats?

Not being cheeky, just curious on your take.

It's a controversial topic. The consensus for many decades has been that saturated fats are not "heart healthy," but there has been some recent reconsideration. For example, the last time that I checked, the American Heart Association would not give the full green light to whole eggs, but said that one whole egg a day would be safe. When it comes to diet and health, there are lots of variables to consider. Eating bacon every day and never getting up out of your BarcaLounger will probably kill you, but is it because of the fat content of the bacon?
 
My brother had a gallon of canola oil he somehow accidentally bought. He asked what it was good for. I told him either to add to diesel or to make soap. I made soap with it.

Only natural oils that can be squeezed out are safe to eat. Seed oils are highly processed and basically are poison.
What kind of processing is used to produce a seed oil?
 
Interesting. I'm 6'1"and 164 lbs. I'm not a skinny cowboy anymore, but I'm going to look into Kimes. I don't think I've bought new jeans that shrink in the wash since 1969. :ROFLMAO:
I wouldn't ever buy a pair without trying them on plus at a 100 bucks you probably wouldn't want to. I do like the fit of the Dillon

If a person wants to spread the grayish white gold from yesterday's ribeye onto today's meatloaf, that's their prerogative. I find it humorous when someone point blank tells me that something doesn't/isn't do/doing something as it's currently doing that very thing.

TRT seems to be the same these days. I've got swollen red faced friends looking like Rogan and RFK that seem to think that altering the body's chemistry as they age out is the second coming and has nothing but positive effects on blood lipids, heart, and overall health.

People will and should do whatever they want, it's their body, I just get tired of the misinformation and fluff used to justify a lot of it.

Ah, now I understand. It's not about diet. It's about freedom. :ROFLMAO:

Agree. There's a Boot Barn somewhere around here. I'll have to drive down.

People who..........tell others what they should do........are almost as bad as the .gov telling people what we should do.

The pendulum swings...........

Ah, now I understand. It's not about diet. It's about freedom. :ROFLMAO:

Some ways it should be. But the world should always know when the gov is wrong, right? Or only certain times?

1) It's a recommendation based on science. Science is, and must be, subject to revision because we are always (hopefully) learning more, new things.

2) It's a recommendation. No one is en Los Estados Unidos has had their freedom infringed. The evidence of what I am saying is that we currently have an obesity crisis in this country because everyone is still entirely free to eat their pork rinds and their Twinkies.

Of course, if you want to turn this into ideology, not science, then let's all agree that Joe Biden is the reason that you have high cholesterol, and Hunter Biden's laptop is what forced you to eat three meals a day at Baskin Robbins, and we won't give up our demand to hang Mike Pence until Hillary Clinton's basement has a stars and bars flag on the wall. :ROFLMAO:
